[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 354875, member: 1695"] Really the only detectors around for that price and new off the shelf are the Garrett Ace 200i and the Teknetics Eurotek. Both have target ID numbers (Go-find misses out on numbers), whilst the Eurotek has better control over discrimination and sensitivity settings (higher resolution). Both are reasonably similar detectors other than that - the Ace has a better choice of both factory and aftermarket coils, whilst the Eurotek is noted for its performance in iron (good recovery speed). The Ace 200i can be had for anywhere between $330-350, and the Eurotek for around $310. If you can afford it, I'd pay a bit extra for the Eurotek Pro for its extra features and performance (pinpoint button, iron audio etc), sells for around $399. The next model up from the Ace 200i is the 300i, though the price also jumps substantially up to $500. If you are willing to spend a bit more into the $450-500 bracket, then detectors like the Fisher F22 (weatherproof), Minelab x-terra 505, Eurotek Pro with DD coil and Ace 300i come into play.
