[size=large]Just kidding![/size] (and maybe having some fun with some of the posters here).

Here's to hoping you all get your 2018 Goodie Sack loaded with treasures that your Eq has found!

[Architex]

When the Equinox is finally released, will Minelab drop the price on a new Safari as they did withe the X-terra series? Maybe the basic from $999 to $799 and the Pro package from $1115 to $915.
Just a thought.

 

[Trashfinder]

We all know how bad used detector sales are right now,,, wonder how new machine sales are??? Might be a lot of price reductions in the future?

 

[nuff coils]

Yes, that's my thought also.

It is 2 degrees here right now. So it doesn't matter much to me when it comes out now, as long as it is before the ground thaws in mid March.

That's not all a bad thing. He can use it to heat his home.

After I went through a divorce (this is a true story) I got a little gift box and put a lump of coal in it, wrapped it and put a neat little bow on it
and a little sticker with her name on it. This way, if I die, her daughter will find the little gift, give it to her and when she opens it
she will see what Santa thinks of her.

Of course if pirates know there is a container full of EQ800's they may not make it.

Plus you have load time, trucking to the dock, dock staging/inspection/sealing/etc the you have the sea time, then offloading and staging at the dockyard, customs import inspection, trucking to distributors, plus probably a few step I have forgotten. I had to coordinate all that crap when my group deployed overseas. It took a long time after loading before we got the call that our connex was on the base and waiting.

I think that counts loading. But there are storms, mutinous crews & a million other things to go wrong. And yes you gotta break up the order
& get it to the dealers direct or via one US distributor first.
A VERY rough calculation of box size puts 640 EQ's in a 20' box. Less if palleted, more if not & stuffed into corners. I guess that would pretty much
cover the BO's but if you count in Canada, S & C America & the islands it may be close. Best for ML to follow Sonys model.

God, I havnt had this much fun since Hillary lost dont ya know !

Sadly, One certain dealer dealer has bought the rights as the importer for Minelab. It rhymes with smelly blow.

True or false Minelab ?
