Drum question (drum, show, guitar, Cymbals, cheap)

Hello people. First post here. Anyways, onto the main thing.

I want to get a drum set, but I have no idea what would be good for a beginner. Could you people show me a set that is good and cheap? Yes, I'm kind of on a budget.

IF you go used you can get a better set. Some people buy good sets and then quit. Get a basic one, its better to learn techniques first

Yeah, don't spend too much. My kit originally was $400 (Australian) and I ended up upgrading with new cymbals etc, it's now up to around $2300.

Once you get good is when you start to spend big bucks.

That's Right, I only have about 3 cymbals

But for Christmas I'm getting a Slpash cymbal, Guitar, Talk box!

I only have Hi Hats, Ride and Crash, but since they're awesome cymbals it makes up for it.

CB Drums are good for a beginner set. You'll want different cymbals and hi hat because the ones on the kit are really crappy, but the drums are decent quality and not bad sounding. The sets are around $500 or $400.
