Suggestions for a good MIC. Need help finding one

Finding one at a great price as well. What is a good mic to get? Something not too fancy but something that will give out a clear and decent sound when you talk on it.

Now I don't know anything about Microphones and what brands to trust. so i need some help

Depends what you gonna use it for. Is it for vocal use over sets (like mc'ing and stuff like that), or vocals in studio (for production purposes).

If it's the first, a good dynamic mic is recommended, and especially a Shure SM58, which is pretty much the standard in that range nowadays (Sennheiser Evolution mics are pretty good too).

If it's for studio use, a condenser mic will give better results (and even more with large diaphragms, but they cost a lot). I suggest you look at the Rode NT series, pretty decent quality for a good price. Condenser mics need phantom power though, keep that in mind.

$100 that's just the normal price for an SM58

Well, talking about mics... i bought a new one, cause my old one did not have that special connection.... Anyway, i got the Shure PG58.
It only cost me 49 bucks. I know what you mean that u dont want to spend much money on just a mic,,, me too, so that was the cheapest i found at the store.

just pick up a omni-directional dynamic mic, it works for any vocal application, as long as it's not falling apart
look into shure and sennheiser mics, those are the 2 brands i trust
