[QUOTE="Defective, post: 331628, member: 10042"] Gday Widget. I was in the same situation as you not long ago. Anaconda have sales quite often. They advertise them on their website. My budget was a bit more but after spending time reading lots of reviews and seeing what people are generally using on the forums I ended up buying the Minelab X-Terra 705 Dual Pack from Anaconda on sale for $610. By signing up to the Anaconda Members club for free, I received a $10 voucher which I used to pay for postage. I'm very happy with the purchase. It's easy to use and far exceeding my expectations. Having indulged in many hobbies (at the disgrace of my wife). The main point I would make about buying boys toys is resale value. If you buy something that is a popular choice for beginners, when you decide to upgrade (or if its not for you) you're going to be able to sell your unit at a good price second hand. I have no doubt that in 12 months time I could sell my detector for $500 and only be $100 out of pocket. That's two cases of beer for hours of enjoyment. Cheap. [/QUOTE]
