[QUOTE="Prom2307, post: 618459, member: 21576"] Hi All, Not sure if this has been covered, or at least in a single post I couldn't find much? I'm a new player to the game and looking to purchase a detector soon. The problem is there is so many options to choose from new, secondhand, older machines, brands etc. How old is too old given the change in the technology in detectors? For example, is it worth picking up a sub 1k SD detector with heaps of extras or slightly newer GP or extreme range or stick to at minimum a digital machine? I get quite overwhelmed with all the information and what to buy/look for. If anyone has some pointers, that would be great. I don't mind too much about price, I'd rather buy once than twice...
