If you have spare cash, Gumtree can be quite good for picking up second hand CDJ's. Unfortunately it's not in everyone's price range, but i've seen sets go for half price and you can usually get all the gear you need.

Actually I found on Kijiji a pair of Pioneer CDJ 100's and a DJM mixer. The ad doesn't have a price on it but I emailed him if he had them and how much he was looking for. What do you guys think of that?
100s are extremely basic so there's no point switching to them from your S2. If you want CDJs I'd at least go for 350s or 400s at the bare minimum.

Yeah I looked into it and they are pretty basic and older but maybe a good back up and helpful to beat match and mix without a laptop.if I can get them for a good deal.
You can learn to beatmatch fine on the S2, you just need to turn off the laptop screen. Or change the Traktor layout to one that doesn't have the phase meter and BPM.

I could do that too and not spend money lol
Save your money for decent upgrades and additions.

good idea I've just been feeling like acquiring more gear lately but maybe I'll save up and get something really worth it
So lately instead of buying gear and upgrading I have been making new maps for what I have and I'm really glad I didn't dish out any cash yet! I mapped my S2 for more effects, Eq on decks c&d, and to change the tempo of decks c&d. On the F1 I made a user map thats used from the insta grat map from the Ultimate Fx thread in the mapping section. I'm so happy the F1 map is so fun to play with!
