I started bottling initially because keging was too expensive.
Don't rush out and buy a keging system if you can't afford it!
Once you have spent long enough bottling initially (it took me 17 brews) then maybe look at kegging.
Don't get me wrong, kegs are great but bottles are heaps cheaper to get set up with and you can start bottling beer heaps sooner at a cheaper cost. A lot cheaper than $350.
