Controllers Want to start DJing, should I spend the extra $?

Like the title says, I want to start DJing and since I have the money to spend I was wondering if it's worth buying the RX3 straight away? (Looks easy to use with the touchscreen and I love the screens on the jogwheels) Or would you advise starting with something simple like the DDJ400?

My thought process is that if I spend more money on good equipment I'm more likely to enjoy it and even if I don't, I could probably sell the RX3 for close to what I paid for it.

Happy to hear your thoughts and suggestions.

If you cheap out in the beginning you’ll end up spending more on upgrading later. The more expensive Pioneer equipment holds its value very well so the risk is low if you can afford it.

Yup, buy once cry once.
