[QUOTE="Big Johno, post: 596618, member: 16872"] Relax Joeboy, The detectors are made/ distributed from here in Aust so you take the exchange rate difference ( approx 25%) OFF the US price not add on. You would add on the exchange rate if you were buying from the US so the pricing is looking about the estimated Aus $7,500 ish. What is interesting is the discount the US dealers are offering, I would assume they are expecting a big rush and each dealer wants to get the lions share so they normally have 30 to 40 % margins in their products with no discount on the detector ( discounts between the dealers in OZ anyway are done by free accessories) where as the US dealers appear to be playing hardball by using their better exchange rate against the oz $ to offer discounts on the detectors. Thats the first time Ive seen direct discounting from private owned Minelab dealers anywhere in the world. The old Covid must be making life tough in the US that's for sure, between Covid, Elections and mean winters, things are pretty quiet over there. [/QUOTE]
