You might want to change the wording, it doesn't show up when I search for "metal detector" :)
even if it is in the text it will come up, so no need to change the heading if you can't.
FYI

i do not think i will be,
with all respect to dirt hunters, i rather do mud with my excal and beaches all year round.
i can not see myself digging all those pulltabs in parks to try and get low chance gold.

or going through piles of 1 and 2 cent pices.

there is not much silver in auckland. so can not do silver hunting either...
so i am basically left with water detecting

Forgot to mention, if someone buys from here - the price will be lower for the amount of trademe success fee ;-)

I've sent fixed price offer 1700 to all watchers of the auction with duration of 1 day.
if noone excepts, gladly will sell here. then will have to relist.

i am surprised that noone one expressed real interest so far :-( especially that it is just the start of dirt detecting season

I would have loved it DB. Was close with my detector savings. Guess detector Gods don't want me to have another as now I have to spend over twice what your asking on dental care for my oldest daughter ~sigh~
I'm surprised people haven't brought you machines just to stop you detecting! Guess they are holding out for your Excal

The Excal is actually sold, just waiting the confirmation/payment on 15/05 from the person.

Dental care is crazy here, a lot of people book holidays to other contries and then have dental there. For example - root canal + cap is about 2000NZD here, you get same quality job done for less than 500$ in Russia (with all the ultra gear used here)

Yeah was told about $3700 and that is through the dental school, privately would be about $7000+
$7000 to a trained eye sure, to me it's like so what is the problem? Daylight robbery. I know what you are saying about Russia I guess that's why so many foreign dentists come over here to practice.

Anyway shame about the timing, just don't sell it to anyone from Dunedin! *8^)

DMNZ and i went to point Chevalier early this morning with an objective to find couple of those bullets and a silver coin :-)
2 E-tracs running side by side, not that we were really digging much, as it was a social outing, but we got several bullets (we were trying to get non squashed ones) so we got one each non squashed and a silver 3d from England -1926 :) obv there were some other coins but the main objective was fullfilled, all in a matter of hour+

So, what i am trying to say is - Guys, help me out , buy my Etrac, 1620$ is a crazy low price for this machine - so i can put the money towards other detector

Cheers
