[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 670968, member: 4728"] If it was bushranger relics, maybe it would have been better to explain that up front. Unfortunately many owners have been put off by the reported activities of unknown and unauthorized fence jumpers and just have a prejudice in that regard. Ensure that you have a good reference like membership of a prospecting group so you can be identified and make an offer to share some of the finds with the owner. Be politely respectful of the owners right to their decision for whatever reason they state and leave your contact details with them advising that should circumstances change you would be still be keen. Have done a bit of selling in my past life and often the reasons people give for not buying something, a product or offer, are a rationalization for a decision already made. You have to drill down for the real reason and often there might not be any. What you are trying to do is sell the idea that detecting the landowners property is in his or her interests. Giving them the time to reconsider whether the objection they gave at first approach was the real one sometimes pays off. [/QUOTE]
