waynej,

GP3000 possibly a GP3500 for that price..

Some ebay stuff - Just make sure its a reputable ebayer you are dealing with before purchasing - pickup is the least risky option if possible Wink

Good luck
A

Some example to look at

Hi waynej.

Go for a dedicated minelab gold detector. Research second hand prices on the net. Then when you understand the average prices for each used model advertise for the best model you can afford on this forum or others. Most times you'll get to speak direct to the seller.

Hi
Would a GPX 4000 be easier to use then a GP3500.
