Most of the targets I am researching are on private property and as such, I will probably have to come to an agreement with the owners of those sites.
I am happy to pay them by the hour to hunt their property, but I remember a time when one landowner was simply trying to use me. It went something like this:
"Yeah, you can search wherever you want, but I want to see what you find."
"Absolutely!"
After my search, it quickly became, "Eh. You can keep that. But I definitely want that. And that, and that, and that, but you can keep that..."
In short, I was fleeced, and since that time I never really tried to get on private property again. Because if I find a piece of continental currency, I assure you that I would prefer not to hand it over to the landowner. Split the difference? Sure. But hand it over? Nope!
Have any of you had similar experiences and how did you deal ya with them?
