[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 647578, member: 4728"] Hi Gregyem. I note the Gold monster retails for about $1250 (new) and I have seen second hand SDC 2300s for as low as $2600 on gumtree. So that is a difference of $1350 between the GM and a sure fire PI gold finder. PI technology is quite old and the kits you are interested in may be able to replicate that but its success as a gold finding technology rests on many other factors not least is the patented timing technology to negate soil interference found in modern PI gold detectors and pioneered by Minelab. I would be a little inclined to avoid spending more of my money on things like PI kits and use that to start up a savings account towards upgrading to a used 2300. If you sell the GM you are not far off half way there. I am sure good used detectors like the 2300 will be around for many years and probably even a bit cheaper to pick up. After holiday periods is a good time to look for bargains. [/QUOTE]
