You might want to search for some used deals on mics (reverb.com, etc). The AKG P170 is $99, the next AKG model up is the P220 - an LDC (large diameter condenser), $150 new and is a nice bit of kit, with included shockmount, switchable hi-pass filter and pad built in, and it comes in a neat metal case..
