Looking to trade a Teknetics Omega 8000 with the 10' concentric and the 11' dd coils.

Looking for: AT PRO
Fisher Coinstrike with coils or CZ3D (will add cash if need be)
Whites XLT in good shape
 
Have a fisher coinstrike just back from fisher..(control box all checked out.....new (8"coil)....on a whites rod.....hip mount box holder...also have a 10" coil(the wire has tear in outer lining)...but works great!
 
What is a whites rod? Forgive my ignorance, is it off a whites machine or something?
 
yes..the machine was set up to mount the box on your belt...and swing the coil on a whites rod(to make it lighter)...it is a rod made by whites metal detectors
 
I run it on 90 sens and maybe once has it gotten chattery.

Im not sure what the value is. I traded a T2 like new unit for this like new unit about 1 month or so ago. Ralph in Albany treats his stuff well. There is not a mark on it other than minimal normal wear. No mark on the screen. They seem a little wobbly, but as long as it is put together correctly they are stable.

It was my 3rd teknetics, I had the Delta 4000, T2 standard, Omega 8000. For some reason our soil seems to hinder teknetics.

I have read amazing reviews, hence the trade for the Omega, but our soil can be tricky. The only machines we have had success with thus far are Whites, Fisher, Garrett. My brother owned a Coinstrike and it punched right through the bad ground and grabbed the old stuff.

As far as the value not holding? Im not sure that it isnt, if it is in fact not, please let me know where you read this so I can better educate myself.

Not sure what the value is on either of our machines. I know the 3D is a quality machine. Once we figure out values of both machines we can begin a starting point. I know my Omega, even with 2 coils, is not a straight up trade for a 3D, so like I said I would be willing to kick in some cash once we figure out a fair and balanced deal that satisfies us both :)
