It is $500 from what I’ve seen on 2 sites (out of stock, of course), it could be that they’re selling them at msrp. Even still at $350 with 30% discount, I don’t think I would buy one! I still have a couple Tesoro’s that I can hunt coins with. My Axiom will find artifacts and coins at good depths too.

Those two shops have no idea how much the new coils will cost. That $500 is just a place holder for the page and will change when the coils come out with Mine Labs msrp. It's NOT going to be $500. This was discussed earlier in this thread.

We can hope you're right on that.

The Xterra Pro is $369 here in Canada. If the 8" comes out at a greater price than what is a fine detector I'll be very upset....that would simply be absurd.

I know it sounds absurd, but a single freq. detector is a fine detector IF you are hunting certain neutral soil conditions and for sure are not hunting a salt beach. The technology has been around for years.

I imagine a "50% more power" Simultaneous Multi Frequency coil like Manticore's coil is a bit more involved to manufacture than what the Xterra Pro coil costs, but not so sure about the entire detector cost either like you are saying.

I think we are paying research and development costs with each new improvement of detector technology.
