It honestly depends on a lot of things. What killer looks interesting to you? Who do you plan to main? "Who should I buy?" largely depends on that. You'll want certain perks from certain killers, depending on who you plan to play. But in general, excluding licensed killers, I'd say:

Hag/Plague: You'll REALLY want Ruin or Corrupt Intervention, and I think both are fun to play.
Spirit: Personally, she's my favorite killer in the entire game. Extremely fun, has decent perks, amazing design, and a strong, viable killer.

There's also really good perks on some of the worst killers (I.E Discordance on Legion, PGTW on Clown) that you can take into consideration. Ultimately, it's up to the individual, but you really can't go wrong with the 3 I listed above.

If you think clown looks interesting, then go for it! He's considered low tier, but that doesn't mean you can't have fun with him. There's people who main pig, and she's also considered low tier. If you want, you can just buy clown now and try him out, and then buy another killer later. You already have ruin, pop, and bbq, which are some of the most meta perks in the game, so you have a decent loadout ready for most killers anyway.

I'm gonna introduce the killers to you:
-Hag: plays similar to trapper, territorial, can teleport but slow without it. Chases in your territory (if you play well) can be over in seconds. Chases outside your territory last forever. Good map control overall, viable killer, but hard to master IMO. Ruin is best perk from her, but other 2 perks are also great. You don't need them, but they can be great.

-Doctor: Has to change modes to either find survivors and slow the game down, or be able to hit survivors. Really hard to play well. Easy to find survivors with, but hard to do anything else really. Perks aren't great either.

-Clown: Chases are fast, you slow the survivors and get the hits in easily. The problem is map control. Clown has none. Would be fun to play if you didn't get genrushed all the time as him. PGTW and Bamboozle can be good.

-Spirit: Top tier killer, that's why I refuse to play/buy her. Spirit fury, for some builds are cool, and Haunted Ground can also be great.

-Legion: Easy to get bloodpoints as, but hard to kill everyone as. If you want to farm, he's a good choice (but so is Wraith, who is already unlocked), if you want to win, stay away. Good perks tho. Well, Discordance is great. Iron Maiden is good for Huntress, Mad Grit is a really niche perk.

-Plague: Fun, has the deepest gameplay IMO. You can use your ability to get information, like you vomit on gens, if someone touches the gen, they get infected, you know that someone is on that gen. You either break everyone, so you become a one-hit M1 killer with people vomiting (which is loud), so you find survivors better (if your hearing and headset is good), or people cleanse and you get the best offensive power in the game, the blood-vomit. Has incredible range, and can hit multiple survivors. Hard to master, maybe the hardest, but IMO the most interesting. You could guess I'm a plague main tho.
Perks are also interesting, Corrupt Intervention is great for trapper and Hag, but also anyone else, to slow down early-game. Infectious fright lets you know who's close when you down someone, for certain builds it's awesome. Dark devotion can counter Borrowed Time, and also confuse the hell out of survivors. Fun.

-Oni: I guess he's OP. Ability similar to Billy, but better. Easy to track injured survivors because of floating blood. Big and scary. So yeah, that feeling I guess could worth it. Never tried myself tho. Perks sound interesting.

It should be noted that Oni isn't really OP. His recent nerf actually significantly hurt him. He's still decent, but most of the time, he really is just a worse hillbilly. However, it sounds like they're going to buff him back up a little, so this could easily change. His perks are trash though, except for Nemesis, which can be used in some good builds.
Doctor is also getting a rework soon, which will change how he plays.

If I had the money for it I would

[Mad Doctor's Cat]

Hag:
Perks: Has two awesome perks (Devour Hope and Ruin). The third perk is trash tier. Unless you're using some kind of weird aura-blocking build there's just no reason to ever use it, and if you do, you're still using a Hex perk that can be removed AND requires you to hit the survivors to even activate the little reward that it gives you.
Difficulty: Difficult to master and to play. But very satisfying when you do.
Reward: The "offensive"-style Hag may be the most fun killer to play as IMO. Trap loops and chase spots, use Monitor and Abuse to disguise where you're coming from, chase 'em into the traps and have yourself a survivor feast. EDIT: Or you can play the Paranoid Granny Hag and put eight traps around every person that you hook while still never straying more than twenty feet from the hook itself. Whatever floats your boat, I guess.

Spirit:
Perks: Some people swear by Spirit Fury, but personally I find it useless in almost all cases. Plus it's really got to be combined with Enduring to even stand a chance of working out. Haunted Grounds is a much-used meta perk and easily one of the best in the game. Rancor is just a really fun troll perk (so is Haunted Grounds, really, but Haunted Grounds is also ridiculously good when combined with... well... pretty much any other Hex perk, really.)
Difficulty: Not as difficult to master as some would say. The Spirit is regarded as one of the strongest killers in the game right now, and for good reason. If you're good enough at tracking where your targets are going, she's an objectively better Wraith. And that's coming from a long-time Wraith "main".
Reward: She's just good. Personally speaking I find her ability a little too luck-based when playing both as and against her. So getting that out-of-stealth hit is less satisfying to me. But if you want a killer who's frighteningly efficient, Spirit is the one.

Plague:
Perks: Honestly I don't think any of her perks are particularly good, except Infectious Fright on a Myers build. (And as I've said Myers is my choice for both the weakest and least fun killer in the game, this should tell you how much I regard this perk.) Dark Devotion... I haven't found a use for it. Theoretically you could do sneak attacks with it, but it's such a short-lived effect and Plague is such a visible killer... I would think it might work on Hag, say. But then Hag doesn't really NEED a perk like that. And as for Corrupt Intervention, well, I guess, if you want to delay the start of the game for two minutes, that's up to you. Because the survivors sure as heck aren't gonna come out of their lockers before then.
Difficulty: So the problem with Plague is that high-ranked survivors will just loop and not cleanse. On the other hand, you can get some interesting stuff going with extended infection addons.
I feel like Plague is good against survivors who don't know how to play against her... which is to say, she's not that good. Not a bottom-tier killer but definitely not hugely strong either. The power of keeping survivors in an injured state is great, provided you can take advantage of it. The problem is she doesn't have too many tools to do this.
Reward: Plague is the ultimate troll killer. Find a stealthy survivor hiding in a corner. Trap them in the corner. Vomit on them, repeatedly. Wait for the other survivors to come along to see what's up. Then vomit on them some more while their friends point and laugh. This is the most fun you can have with DbD that doesn't involve dropping survivors face-first into "The Game" map's urinals.

Legion:
Perks:
Yeah, I'm not impressed by these. Discordance... there are about six better anti-gen perks in the game, why would you use this one? Iron Maiden is good for fast reloads on Huntress but not much else. Mad Grit has its place in a weird niche build that involves using Agitation to run around while furiously swiping at survivors. It's also excellent against bodyblocking SWFers. One of those rare perks that is more useful against high-level survivors who use their health states as a resource, rather than the low-level ones who just hide and run.
Difficulty: He's not difficult, he's just ineffective. The idea is to keep survivors occupied in mending in order to prevent them from doing generators. I have once had a run of twelve stabs in a single Feral Frenzy session in which I got the first guy, then the second, then the third... and by the time I got the fourth, the first had mended, so it all started again. The big problem with the Legion is that he has no lethal power.
Reward: Legion just feels like a struggle to me. He's good for farming for bloodpoints and emblems, but not for much else. Although I did reach Rank 1 with him.

Clown:
Perks: Pop Goes the Weasel is one of those better anti-gen perks that I mentioned above. His other two perks are just too situational to be of much use. Bamboozle is ok if you get the right map (chiefly Torment Creek... that damn window!) and Coulrophobia is ok... except that there are better anti-heal perks in the game, so again, why would you use it? As part of some big terror radius build, maybe.
Difficulty: The Clown is surprisingly difficult to play to his full potential. The bottles aren't like hatchets; they travel slowly and do no damage on their own. So it's a case of using them to cut off dangerous areas and loops.
Reward: A good clown run is very satisfying to me. Clown rewards skill and situational planning. Try him with all chase perks, it's a blast.

Doctor:
Perks: Overwhelming Presence is bottom tier but the other two perks are really good. Monitor and Abuse is great for getting close to survivors without them knowing it, for Leatherbutt or the Hillbilly for example, or great for hiding your presence while setting traps as Hag or Trapper... the list goes on. Overcharge is just ok but I like it when combined with other anti-gen perks such as Pop or Surveillance.
Difficulty: The Doc is about to have a serious rework. So I'd see how that pans out before getting him. Same with reward, I don't know how he'll be in a few months' time so I don't know how much fun you can have with him.

Oni:
Haven't played him enough to get a good feel for him, but I don't like the way he controls in Demon mode - he feels "slippery", like running on ice, where the Hillbilly feels crisp and precise - and his perks are garbage, probably the worst set of teachables in the game right now. At least the Wraith has Shadowborn, the Clown has Pop, etc. What has the Oni got? Pretty much nothing. On the other hand, the ability to track survivors by blood that's not on the ground is a nice thing to have. I love his visual design but he hasn't been fun to play, at least for me so far.

So my personal order would be: Hag, Spirit, Clown, Plague, Oni, and finally Legion. And I'd wait for the Doc's rework before even considering buying him.
