New detector advice

[Retiredsailor]

Sold all my stuff a year ago and gave up detecting, what a mistake I should have kept my equinox 800. Now I have the fever to start again but need a new detector. Thinking about the minelab equinox 900 but it’s getting cold and snow is coming. Should I buy now or wait for spring?

If you are getting a minelab get it before the end of the year. Minelab is going to be raising their prices Jan 1, 2024.

You might want to look at the Legend. Buying one now will give you time to learn the machine. Not sure where you're at but you can hunt most woods when the grass is frozen. Mark

Just read your intro post. Welcome from Pittsburgh. And maybe not so much woods hunting if you're upstate NY. Sorry. You guys get clobbered most winters. Good luck. Mark

OUCH!

People just make too much money now LOL. Actaully, I think the problem is the huge gap between the rich & poor.

Ya that's one of the price lists I saw, its just the Australian prices and I didn't see a usa price list. I hope a usa dealer posts their price list so people know how much to expect prices to increase here.

Here is another Australian price list of price increases Mine Lab will be implementing at the 1st of the new year

this one list pretty much every detector produced by Mine Lab and pin pointers you can convert the prices to American dollars

I will believe these prices listed are USA prices once I see an Xterra Pro sell for the 2023 listed price of $259, todays price for it.

These are erroneous prices!

That’s usually the way it works out. Best of luck with the new detector. Welcome aboard!
