Decent microphone, around $100

[jippie952]

I'm looking for a decent microphone, should cost around $100, although I don't live in the US, so eventually the ones you suggest may not be available for me. Anyway, I want to use it for speaking, I will record some things I have written. I thought about Blue_Microphones's Snowball, but if you have any better ideas, please post them.

You tell us that you're not from the US but you don't tell us where you actually are from

For your use case an ATR2500 or Snowball is about all I would bother with, going for anything more "professional" would be a waste since you aren't recorded daily or anything of the sort.

What are you? Mad? Wanting to use a microphone for voice communications.

Blue yeti or similar cardioid Condenser Mics. usually cheap since they are underused.

I have a Snowball, and I really like it.
