Gp Extreme Vs Gp 3500

[Steve Herschbach]

Gerry gets lots of good used detectors on trade. I think he is in the field detecting right now, as he normally is when he is absent from the forum. 900 Euros may be a lot, but so would be shipping a detector from the U.S. along with import duties, etc. if you get the GP Extreme, inquire about the condition of the battery, as the old lead cell batteries often die with age, and if it has the original battery, it probably is not good. Otherwise it appears to be in good condition.

This is Steve.  I have bought some things from the United States and I have been lucky that they have not stopped it at customs and I have not had to pay anything other than the shipping costs.  But this case is different.  Shipping, insurance and at least 21% of the declared value should be added to the price of the detector.  it all depends on the price of the detector.  Thanks for the links Steve

I get 3.5 hours per set of cells. Last Sunday hunted 7 hours, probably 7-8 miles of walking.

Not the greatest targets but the right detector for the job as really not too much trash and lots of black sand. I tested this detector against CTX and eq600 in this type of sand and way better depth. Also no pickup of foil.
