Just wondering what you all think about a $225.00 price, on a like new like condition one. It comes with the 9.5” & 12.5” coils and some other accessories too. The story is, is the person who owned it gave it to his neighbor before he died. That neighbor posted it on FB market place because he doesn’t know anything about metal detecting & don’t plan on using it. After a brief conversation with him , he claims that it looks brand new……That’s why I responded ………It’s not like I need another detector!…Ha , Ha, Ha!

A nice machine for the money.
No, I don’t believe so.
That’s what I was thinking too. Like I said, I wasn’t looking to get in a new machine but for that price it’s hard to say no…… I think the best deal I ever scored on FB market place was a new Minelab Xterra 705 (never used) for $145.00.
Yes I remember hearing the woman's voice , " Power on coins discriminate " I almost bought one just hear her voice,
Buy it! If you ever sell it, you will get your investment back.
Exactly!……yeah, I just picked it up & it is indeed like new condition. It was a promotional package that Garrett put out for this machine. Both coils show no signs of ever touching the ground…..Unreal!

You won't know until you turn it.
The mode is called Treasure Talk A,, B,, C
If I remember correctly.
I think this one doesn’t contain the treasure talk. I noticed that on the older model, it had the treasure talk button on the far right hand bottom of display face. This one doesn’t have it. I turned it on to make sure it worked before I bought it and, no voice whatsoever came on . The display sure works though.

I believe it may be in the settings.
maybe?……I’ll check it out & let you know.
Apparently from what I’m gathering (info), Garrett did away with the treasure talk feature sometime in early 2000. Mine appears to be built after that time.
That means that you have the newer chip which added more depth. Prior models users had the option of having the new chip installed for $100.00
That’s good to know!….Thanks for the info John!

Nice! It's funny how things just fall in our lap but, being in the right place at the right time also helps. It's a great machine from Garrett's... Top of the line (at the time). I owned one in the past with the "treasure talk" feature. I also had the 9.5 white imaging coil mounted to it. I bought later a 5x10 DD coil. Both coils were dead nuts accurate. When you pinpoint to locate your target, the 2500 was the most accurate out there by far compared to my Tesoros and White's that I owned. Have fun with your newly acquired detector.
