[QUOTE="HarryHoudini, post: 321332, member: 8674"] Hi Emanuel. welcome. If you are unsure of the detector it may be best to hire one (sort of suck it and see) to try it out. You need to be very clear as to what detecting you are going to do, then research your options. Maybe drop into a metal detecting club to also help with your choices. There have been some horror stories of people buying very old detectors for large amounts of money. If your budget can handle it maybe new is an option. Had a guy out today and he purchased a very old 4500 and it did not work well, had a very hard life. Probably 5 years plus and he paid $3600 and no warranty and 4 very old coils. For the same money you can get new... Cheers [/QUOTE]
