What to look for when buying your first Violin?

Don't know anything about violins, but you need to give the neck a good looking over. See if its warped, been broken and duct taped together, etc. If its like a guitar, then you can look straight down the neck from the bridge to see if its warped. If its straight, its good. The more crooked (warped) the more you need to NOT consider that one. That's the biggest thing I can think of.
