On an Epson Stylus Photo R3000 printer for my photography. It has an ultra cool pigment inkset that is archival quality, with some ink and paper combinations lasting well over 100 years. In particular, the inkset itself has several levels of black and grey inks to produce truly neutral black and white prints which I am particularly excited for. Best of all, there is a rebate right now, bringing it down to an "economical" $650 instead of $799. Check out the promo video because they make it look like some military specced printer. Oh yeah.

With an extra set of ink, some paper, the total came out to just shy of a grand. It was either this or a new camera body which I am in no hurry about since my badass lenses are giving my relatively basic camera an incredibly lengthy life span.
So SE++, what are some awesome/expensive things you recently bought? Share with me your budget burning buys!

It was to pay for the ER visit I had to make when the hole left by a recently extracted wisdom tooth got massively infected, misdiagnosed by a dentist as dry socket, and swelled up to the point where I couldn't swallow my own saliva and almsot couldn't breath at 3 am.
Does... does that count as something expensive I bought? I mean, I DID get opiates out of it. I understand why people do heroin now at least, because that shit they gave me was awesome.
this in pewter
it is the most comfortable couch ever
the chaise is right next to a window
and the chair on the other edge is a recliner
on credit card bullshit
almost fucking done, and i'll be debt free
Holy fuck. Glad you didn't die. I too had an ER visit that took me nearly two years to pay off. Collapsing on stage and waking up in a hospital bed is not fun, yo.
I have maybe $3 grand in credit cards and maybe $15-17 grand in student loans.
It isn't great, but my credit score is fairly good and I am still purchasing camera gear left and right while paying down my debts when and where I can. $100 here, $200 there.
Nice job paying that shit off.
It's so awesome.
Oh man, building is the best part. It's like big boy legos.
Thinking about building a new home PC, some for gaming but also photo editing and such. ~$2000 with monitors and such.
I also need a refillable ink cartridges and bulk inks so I don't get raped by OEM inks $250.
The body of my camera is a little older than I'd like it to be. It's also an entry level camera but with pro level lenses, new body being $1200.
A few new lenses wouldn't hurt. $700-1200.
Meh, not bad but not great either.
i just got back a lot from taxes
Also going to buy a sizable tv for my room so I can Steam big picture all the time, that will probably only run me like $400 though.
I guess I could use a new monitor for my computer as well, mine is like 8 years old. Off to the reviews websites!
i need to get around to soaking them so i can wear them

But now I have a suit.
Heh, sucker.
At Arkansas student tickets were $1 a game.
and that's when the attack comes. not from the front, but from the side, from the other two raptors you didn't even know were there
Wait...
is it $1000 toothpaste made of diamonds or something?
No, it is normal toothpaste. I just refuse to pay less than $1000 for anything.
but earlier this month I wrote two checks in the same day that totaled up to about $2800
in terms of actual goods I can't think of anything i own that costs much over a thousand. my computer is about 1k. my TV was 700.
we also talk about other random shit and clown upon each other
I love how they color coordinated the tickets for quick recognition. Really helped out after you'd had a couple.
And I don't care what anyone says, if you ain't right next to the band you ain't sitting in the best part of the stadium.
If and when I ever actually see that money I'm going to go crazy and...put it in the bank.
Oh hey awesome another arkansas grad!
Hey cool person! I think we met at pax east 2012 fancy dinner right? If not ignore my dumb ass.
I really should have gone to more games. I wasn't really a football fan until after I graduated.
I am saving up until I have enough to live without a job for 6 months, then I am *~upgrading my life~*
I've already taken baby steps.
Comfortable chair for my computer (where I spend substantial time), new fancy shoes, bedsheets that aren't like 4 thread count, and soon a new bed.
After that I will tackle the fancy clothes issue!
Crunch Crunch! Munch Munch! Chomp Chomp! Gulp!
We did meet then! I had forgotten and also there were a ton of folks!
I didn't go to enough games when I was a student. I have been graduated for five years now and I haven't been to a single game, despite living close enough to walk The Hill and watch.
I even missed the whole season where we were good! Fuck!
And I only paid for half!
Only $100 for one of the highest quality consumer 35mm projectors ever made. Hooray for obsolescence!
Well, you get what you pay for :bz
According to my buddy these are second deck 40 yard line great seats. He's a med student, and I'm buying one of his classmates' passes. I just hope my student ID still works.
