for the cheap primes
You're as well to buy them new (no real saving 2nd hand)
Canon 50mm/Nikon 35mm (assuming you went for one of those systems.
If you know of a trustworthy camera shop then secondhand with a short warranty wouldn't be too bad.
That said, decent glass is usually expensive.
Those 2 normal primes mentioned above are as cheap and good value as they come.
They'll also help you get a lot more out of the photos you take (once you learn to zoom with your feet)
