You and Rob have both mentioned this. Yet it is apparently still made and sold in Australia? What the ???????
I was going to ask this the other day. I did notice that there were only two dealers selling these on Ebay.

And fact is without them we'd be sitting 20 years back as far as the technology goes overall,
Yeah, and there would be a lot more gold in the ground. 😆

I was informed a GPZ-7000 is much cheaper in MX than US.
I doubt it. Maybe if the exchange rate was higher.

Whichever dealer you go with, make sure he actually hunts for gold nuggets and is Successful.
You make too much sense. LOL.

That was the first one that popped up. I don't know much about Utah other than I can't wait to retire and visit the southern part of the state.

am wanting to purchase a quality metal detector at a fair price but in reading many forums and articles; it seems that there are a lot of counterfeit machines on the market. What are some of the reputable dealers that only deal in certified branded detectors and equipment? I'm looking to purchase within the next 5 days. Really interested in the Minelab Equinox 800. Thank you for suggestions on great dealers to work with.
I think Gerry at https://gerrysdetectors.com/ may have a good used one for sale, he is a multi line dealer.

The more likely scenario is this blows up in their face, and we see a price reduction sometime later next year.
Yea they will knock 10% off. Make you feel like your getting a deal. LOL.
I was really hoping for a price reduction. Why increase the Gold Monster when they where given them way with a 6000 purchase?

Kind of the same situation over here, I was going to order the hip stick from one of the places in Australia and ran into the same thing N/A for U.S orders,
Pretty sure JP would have sold you one and shipped to the US. His son took over the MFG of these.

a hip stick would be a good item for @Doc to produce for us here in the U.S i can get one from miners den in Australia but the shipping is like $50 to get it shipped to Arizona
Make your own. Use a Arrow shaft. I would add a paddle from a holster tom the ball socket end to make it more comfortable.

That sounds like my old hunting partner, the legendary Smokey Baird; he told me the exact same thing when I first met him at Rye Patch nearly 24 years ago…has it been so long?!
Yea I have no idea what his name was. That was one of my worst planned out trips ever, but I did enjoy driving through NV. Goldfield kind of gave the creeps for some reason. Stop at Gold Basin on the way back I did find gold there not enough to pay for gas. Overall I can't complain about the trip.

I have been to Rye Patch once, probably 15 years ago or so. I had no idea where to go while driving around I ran into a older gentleman sitting on his tailgate. So we talked for a bit and he gave me a pointy finger. He told me to keep an eye for those cubes and crystals. He said when you find those together you should find gold there also. I didn't find any gold but it was a nice drive. LOL

I wonder if the out of date Maintenance Fee Waiver Certification has anything to do with it? I'm thinking folks didn't want to pay so they didn't file with the out of date form.

One of if not the best book out there is this one. https://www.amazon.com/Fists-Full-Gold-Chris-Ralph/dp/0984269207/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3OLKIC3L15X8A&keywords=Chris+Ralph&qid=1699889226&sprefix=chris+ralph%2Caps%2C145&sr=8-1
