Man, that's tough! Can't the generous souls here at Head-Fi start a collection for you? Alone with only 4 headphones to keep you warm during the long winter? Why, that's positively inhuman.
I've been reading about the HD800 being extremely detailed and having a very expansive soundstage. How does this headphone compare to reality i.e. if I want a headphone that sounds like real life is this a good option? Or is it better to describe the HD800 experience as hyperreal (i.e. better than or an improvement on actual reality).
It has no resemblance to "real life" whatsoever. All headphones put the soundstage primarily inside your skull. Your brain suspends belief and allows it to be enjoyable.

There is a crucial difference between reality and your favorite armchair...
