Help choosing my first mixer

I'm going to start bedroom djing and need some recommendations regarding a mixer..

I'm basically settling for the 2 brand new decks and cheap new or 2nd hand mixer option.

as for decks i've decided to invest on brand new 1210 MK5s.

mixer-wise, the pcv-275 was my first choice but unfortunately it is currently out of my budget.

so i have been looking at Behringer mixers namely the DJX400 2-channel(DJM300 clone)...and the DJX700 5-channel(DJM500 clone)

i need some advise regarding behringer mixers, and whether they are of good quality etc.

i really need advise on whether it is worth looking out for a 2nd hand pcv-275 or are 2nd hand mixers out of the question totally?

if i settle for the behringer, which retails for around 2-300 AUD, i will probably need an upgrade in less than a years' time..true? besides, they are only 2-channel...so thats why i'm in this dilemma..

help anyone?
