If your only going to be scanning some films and not actively using it all the time, then you may as well just use a scanning service where you will get much better quality for a lower price. Those cheap scanners are basically just webcams mounted to scan negatives and produce quite poor image quality.

This is the place that I use to scan my negatives, they do negatives, slides and print scanning of nearly any format and to an excellent quality:
