[QUOTE="Goldbuzzhashit, post: 2538, member: 176"] Just got a call from another keen to get into detecting bloke, who has fallen victim to the eBay fakes, he (bob) just bought a minelab 5000 for $4765.54 was the winning bid anyway he got it yesterday avo, put the leads together and turned it on. Nothing, charged the battery and tried again, nothing, took it to one of his mates (computer genius) and they opened up the control box, well there was a steel weight in it and the dials mounted to the case. The coil was a plastic copy minelab with no wire in it as well, but however there was a battery. Bob has tried to contact the seller, with no reply so far. Be carefully boys and girls. The worlds full of wankers. :o [/QUOTE]
