There is a Cabela's Sporting Goods store close to me. They have a Bargain Bin where discontinued items and some returns are on sale. I noticed a X-Terra 305 on the shelf and asked the department manager about it. I ended up getting it at a huge discount as Cabela's seems to have quit carrying Minelab detectors. At least I did not see any in their new detector dept. and the 305 has a sticker that said Discontinued. Anywho, my out the door price including tax was $182. I love the machine and it is now my go to detector. So watch those bargain and return departments! Any other stories on bargain detectors out there?
