XP Amazon Store Announced

[F350Platinum]

Well it looks like XP is trying to increase their American market, caught this announcement on their website:

https://www.xpmetaldetectors.com/en/ba/the-blog/xp-metal-detectors-launches-amazon-store-to-expand-market-reach-in-the-usa.php

Yay. You'll probably pay MSRP for stuff there, but as it expands ya might get what ya need. 😀

I'm pretty sure the marketing folks and the engineers are not the same department 🤣

I am starting to wonder if anyone works there!

Bob and I are killing it out there with our crippled Beta test D2’s.  My fully updated Nox is collecting dust and the 900 has been a mostly disappointment so far for a version 2.0.  Sorry this 0.71 beta is holding you back, Dave.  But hard core beach hunting is not my wheelhouse, so I’m probably missing something.  Anyway, I just hope they don’t break anything that works now once they do release it.

I was sort of hoping that they would buddy up with Apple as well. So that when the updates finally do begin I won't have to spend my time finding someone else to install them for me.

Speaking of Amazon - I totally get why people are adverse to Windows (I primarily use Android and a Chromebook) so I bought a relatively cheap Win 10 S Mode laptop (designed for grade schoolers) and have dedicated it for Detector updates (Nokta, XP, Minelab) and other Metal Detecting related IT tasks (research, mapping, web searches) in the field.  It’s not going to break any productivity speed records, but it doesn’t have to (that’s what your Mac is for).  I see several on Amazon for around $150.  You might be able to find a used one for even less.  It costs less than many metal detecting accessories out there that are a heckuva lot less useful. Just a thought.

That's good to know Chase.I will look into it.

I contacted XP customer service on their website to ask about their XP Pinpointers and if they're pulse or not, they never replied.   They don't appear to have fantastic customer service.

Not a fan of Amazon, not much different than Ebay. Better off with a known trusted dealer.
