$$$ Whites DD coils $$$

[coinspader]

If you got any Whites DD coils laying around you can make some good money with them now, I have been looking and there aren't any under 100 bucks and a lot of them are much more than that, I guess it's a supply and demand thing since Whites shut down.

I do own a few, 7, 9, 4x6, 6x10, 1400, 10 round, arrow - and a few concentrics, too, lOl.

Thanks for asking, DW-BGW. Some time ago this was asked in anotgher thread...here we go -->
(I like it and my suggestion is, go for one as long as you can get one)

Detech Arrow coil

Has anyone any info or experience with the 18x4” Arrow coil? I can see some advantage having something like this but also its drawbacks. Just wondering……

I have owned many coils for the V3i and I still do but, the Detech coils equal or beat the Whites brand V3i coils. They strangely don't require v-nulling Whites coils, and they are robust, something I can't say for the Whites D2. That D2 coil died early with a bad null. The Whites 4x6 coil is great, robust coil. The Whites 6x10 coil has always struggled to get 7 inches but is still has it's null today. I don't use the V3i as much after getting into Minelab machines, but the 14 yr old V3i is still solid with either my Detech 8x6 and 10x12.

I do own many of the Whites coils though. They are very dusty. I still can't figure out why the Whites 6x10 coil struggled with 6-7" deep coins.

I saw this coming when White's went out of business. I bought (2) two coils from my local dealer. I bought a White's TRX pin pointer. Recently I noticed on the internet White's Spectra V3i sells almost what it did new. It had extra coils and a wireless headphone set. 'Supply and demand'! Most know what you ask you will get. If not go buy one! lol I'm glad I bought the extra coils. I would like to buy the wireless headphone set if I could find one almost new for a good price. The White's V3i with mixed mode is awesome! It allows mixed stereo in both ears. Hopefully Garrett will revive White's Spectra V3i adding water proof.
Addendum It is good to see some familiar (White's diehard fans) I am beginning to believe I am one)). lol

Honestly, I can't actually find any great prices for original Whites V-rated DD coils

Never gonna happen if they haven't made the Bullseye TRX pinpointer under a Garrett label. For some reason Garrett bought the company and won't cash in on a sure seller like the TRX pointer. They won't be building the actual V3i.

Odd sale.

Maybe they didn't want anybody else buying it.

Garretts is the seller though! You buy a company's rights in a sale but then not make MONEY off the patents. Really?

I was thinking that Garrett bought Whites to keep another competitor from buying them to keep the competition down, plus I think they made use of one of their Gold detector platforms.

It was the time when they (Garrett) came out with the MF Apex. So with buying out White's they were safe not to run in troubles from that site. The V3(i) and VX3 were EOL (end of life) at that time beacause some of the electronic-components ran out. That was the reason White's stoped VX3 production to have some more parts to build the V3i because they earned more money with selling the V3i. (V3i and VX3 = same machine/hardware - different software/firmware)

Yup, AND the could fight against the chinese counterfights.

IMHO

It was like this. Garrett had to deliver a tested VLF gold machine. So they started reissuing the Goldmaster 24k with a new coil.
