Great looking unit..!
Build quality looks awesome, looks like a true military spec detector.
For $500 it'll be almost worth buying to just have hanging on the wall haha.

You will notice that the $500 starting bid is not reserve.

If you are wanting a mine detector that can do alternative work have a look at one of these -

http://www.ebay.com/itm/...&hash=item41863977bb

They range in price from $300 to $1000 depending on condition -

Here's a link to another forum which speaks about this item -

http://metaldetectingfor.../showthread.php?t=196183

If you are going to spend that much it might pay to look overseas as your money will go further (Pardon the pun)

Happy Hunting
