Not really, plenty of organisations (and the government to some extent) rank the most expensive areas of the country to live in based on average rents/house prices.
Yeah, but it's not the point of my thread
the thread title was: "Random Student Loan Purchases Thread", not "Discussion on if our student loans are fair thread". Again, I'm honestly not having a go, I'm just more interested in what random things people buy 
Agreed.
I'm glad I managed to get a £1000 overdraft. I will probably blow a bit of it on games and CDs.
Once you start collecting, it's impossible to stop!
There's nothing more annoying than when my mates blow their student loans on **** they don't need and then complain that they're broke throughout the following weeks.
Not suggesting that any of you are like this. Sounds like a lot of you are genuinely struggling to meet your rent which sucks.

I'm pretty sure I've seen Shayper complaining about money, before.
Yes I have. However this term I have an excess of cash, and I do actually need this mixing desk as I have a set at Proud2 in the O2 arena coming up, and I can't do that on a laptop.
To be honest it's sort of an investment, It may help your music career and you could earn some money at the same time.
Or as flibbage0 said, make an investment (which this is) into making more money in the future. If I do this right at the O2, I'll be DJing at least once a week at my student union club, paid, not to mention the possibility of DJing at bigger clubs in the future
Some.
Still have them? And are they any good?
Just looked on amazon. The CDJ800 Mk2s are 700 quid each O.O

Second year, GTX560ti (with money left over from 1st year).

Yeah the 800s went up in price! I had the djm600 cheap as my mate was selling his.
I really can't remember what I paid for the 800s. I think I paid something like 800 or 850 for the pair. When pioneer were making them left right and centre.
I sold the setup a year ago hardest thing I had to do as I promised myself I would never sell. However it got to stage where I Hardly used them. And I needed funds to put towards a new car.

It's certainly more interesting to the other tat that's going on in the thread really, shame the OP throws a hissy fit any time I see his posts.
I don't have spare money for anything; I'm in London and my loans don't cover my rent at all, not even near.
Err excuse me? I don't recall ever throwing a hissy fit
Considering that a fair amount of people said that I was the happiest member of these forums, I think you may have me confused with someone else
And I've seen other threads being closed for less thread diversion, so I wasn't throwing a hissy I was just trying to keep it on topic
Sure, if you say so .
It's a pretty pointless thread anyway if you want to keep it to no discussion of anything else revolving around Students & money/loans.
It may as well just go into the purchase thread for the month, as it'll be exactly the same sort of posts. It's not discussing anything different to that thread if you just want to talk about purchases.
