    ⭐ Gold Detecting Show'n Tell

    That is an awesome piece. Do you need bodyguards up there? Human and drug trafficking city isn't it? I didn't know about the specific gravity test - I just tried it. 11.32 dry, 9.04 suspended in water. The tricky part is the specific gravity of the rock- some of it is light, but there is some...

    ⭐ Gold Detecting Show'n Tell

    Hi guys, Was lucky enough to do a bit of detecting in the last few months. First, I was in Melbourne and got up to Whipstick area. The SDC2300 never lets me down and I would definitely recommend it for beginners. I am getting used to finding gold- it is a joy every time, but I am starting to...

    GPX5000 Have I got an offer for you!!!!!!!!!

    :) Nice of you to split the savings evenly. So, if the savings had been higher, let`s say $7990, then your calculation would have been: GPX5000 Current price = $6450 - $3995 = $2445 SDC2300 Current price = $3995 - $3995 = $0 Seems fair. :rolleyes:

    Hi, My name is Mark.

    Thanks for the advice Pete, I just checked out his tours online. $1495 for Western Australia 10 day tag-along is similar to some of the other tag-along tour prices I have seen, so will definitely be looking into that more for next year. Cheers!

    Garrett ATX vs Minelab SDC2300

    Yeah, I got that impression when I saw the other post. I won`t go on, because I think I have already irritated just about every other member of the forum. lol. You are obviously well liked and highly respected. Despite my comments, I enjoyed your review. Thanks.

    Garrett ATX vs Minelab SDC2300

    My apologies if I offended anyone, as I mentioned it was not all directed at Nenad. But when you are posting a comparison of two detectors and you work for one of the companies, there is no question that you need to let the readers know. At the moment, many people are searching for SDC2300 and...

    Garrett ATX vs Minelab SDC2300

    The SDC2300 is close to double the price of the ATX in the US- about 180%. SDC2300 is $3750USD ATX is $2120USD So, in this case the ATX is a MUCH better deal in USA. To say `deal` sounds like luck- I should just say that Garret is ripping Australians off. The SDC2300 is roughly the same price...

    Garrett ATX vs Minelab SDC2300

    That may be true, but I thought I saw you on a minelab video- am I wrong? And another post said you worked at minelab, which you seemed to acknowledge. My apologies if I am completely mistaken. If you work at minelab, then you certainly can`t be trusted (at least by people that don`t know you)...
