No, but now I will go and see why I should. Thanks for the leg up.

Hi I bought a pin pointer today from jaycar as I was excited to use it but the thing turned out dud working but not it was only vibrating not buzzing
Need help can I get my money back I still have the receipt and I'll get a better one that acasually works. When I turned it on light green didn't indicate was detecting metal far distance that stunned thought it only detects if it's close not far.
So not happy want my money back.

If it does not do what is states on the packet then by law you are entitled to a refund

Contact some of the sponsers on here they will not rip you off
I have delt with two of them and they couldnt be more helpful

You cant go wrong with a Garrett Carrot in my opinion.

You are protected by your consumer rights. The product purchased must perform as expected. If it does not work (faulty) you have the right to an exchange or your money back. Personally I would get my money back.

If you search this site.

Goldpick did a heap of tests on these things a while back. It must be listed somewhere here but I couldn't see it just now.

hmm bugger that sucks, the description on the listing page at jarcar says that the pinpointer will locate a coin at up to 30mm if it doesn;t do that take it back, the listing Also says it has a led indicator and a vibration not a buzzer. If you cant use it for the purpose you bought it and you can demonstrate to the shop that is does not work take it back asap. a decent pointer starts over $100 the $60 price tag should be a good indication of functionality

Take it back, you are entitled to a refund.

Hi I have a Pistol Probe that is made in US. Can easily find small targets from 20cm or even further. It is a bit cumbersome given width of the battery section but works a treat. Have to turn the sensitivity down to pinpoint target accurately but that is good.

So I finally jumped with an eBay discount code and grabbed a Nox 800, I'm very much a noob when it comes to detecting these days I have owned very basic ones in the past and for a short time a GPX 4500, it was stolen before I could do much damage with it. I have a great deal to learn about using the Nox, I played around in the park down the street for about 40 mins before the cold got the better of me this evening. Dug up some trash and even a couple of spendables, but soon realised it was a bit futile for now without a pinpointer.

So I need some help deciding on a pinpointer, right now I can't decide between the Minelab Pro-Find 35 and the XP MI4 or MI6. I understand the 6 has the ability to link with the Deus, which I don't require but Clegy has them on sale, I don't know if there is any benefit with the 6 over the 4 when not using a Deus.

Basically, the Pro-Find 35 and the XP MI6 are the same price right now, I'm also open to suggestions on cheaper alternatives, I just thought might as well spend a few dollars on something reliable.

profind 35 everytime

As above mate :Y: :Y:

I may have a PF35; only a few week old - up for sale shortly....

Have some other shit to sort out so check back with me in about 10 days if you have not done a deal by then.

Hi Chris I have a Garrett pinpointer 4 sale. See for sale section. Cheers

I've always used Minelab detectors but own a MI6. It's a brilliant pinpointer and I can't think why I would change to any other. Even though the 35 has ferrous discrimination. My Equinox discriminates just find so I don't feel the need for that in a pinpointer.
