    My opinion

    I am thinking about buying one but how is the warranty? Will the company repair the detector and in a timely manner? Did you have any problems?

    Thinking about a Simplex plus

    I certainly wouldn't want to buy one and get shallow dept on coins. I talked to a dealer and asked him if he takes them back if something is wrong with it and he said he doesn't. Others say it's fantastic. Thanks for your input.

    Thinking about a Simplex plus

    I'm thinking about buying a Simplex plus but with all the detectors I have is it really worth it. I really want to know are they reliable will the company stand behind them. If the warranty is not that great I'll pass but I need to know some real world experiences with it.

    Any one using the Simplex on wet salt sand or in the water?

    I'm considering purchasing a Nokta Makro Simplex plus but I have 4 good machines. I've got Garrett GTI-1500 and At-Pro, Tesoro Vaquero and Bandido 2 micro max and am wondering is the Simplex really worth it. I've talked to some dealers that will not take them back if something goes wrong and a...

    Garrett Takes On A New Shape (more hints)

    John I really hope this is a groundbreaking detector. Unfortunately it is being released when people are struggling to survive. I'm thinking food and bills may be more important than a new hobby detector. I hope they do well.

    GTI coil change and why must Garrett tune it to the machine?

    I own a GTI 1500 and learned that the old white coils have a tendency to crack and then moisture gets inside and ruins it. Want to buy a used black epoxy coil and thought I could swamp them out but Garrett says no. They have to tune the coil to the machine at a cost of $40. Seems like you could...

    GTI 1500

I called Garrett and they told me that coil can separate and get moisture in there and they told me how to check it out but what are y’all’s experience with the old coil? Is this still a great deal? I...

    Passing of a treasure hunter

    This morning a great friend and treasure hunter Thomas Brown passed away. He was on this site as the "Deleon Kid" and he was a good man. He taught me a lot about this hobby and we went to Biloxi, Destin, and the battlefields of Louisiana and many small parks. I met him in a Treasure Hunting club...

    Can anyone tell me the difference in tone between the Bandido 2 Umax tone and the Vaquero low tone? Is it a higher tone on the Umax? Is the Vaquero low tone easier to hear if you're hearing isn't the greatest?

    Garrett 6.5x9 coil for AT-Pro better for parks???

    Just ordered a 6.5x9 coil for AT-Pro. I was told that this coil is better for hunting than the DD that came with my detector. I usually hunt parks and old homes and a friend told me that the concentric coil is better for what I do and will gain some depth. Any experiences?
