[QUOTE="goldbug, post: 10077, member: 393"] Its unfortunate the Minelab/Codan have set the price of their products out of reach for the average fossicker.. Sure the GPX5000 is the worlds best gold detector, but that alone doesnt justify its price tag. I was always under the impression that Minelab products were designed and manufactured in South Australia, and that sort of justified the high price tag, so I was unimpressed when I received my X-terra 705 only to find it was made in Malaysia. :o If Garrett comes out with a killer machine that rivals the GPX5000 AND it starts to take sales away from Minelab, then I'm sure the price of the GPX5000 will drop quick smart..and that would be great news. :) [/QUOTE]
