Yea, it's quite the "Gotcha" move by the various small beach municipalities up and down the coast. One area even charges $4 an hour on weekends. It all goes into the city's $$ fund for whatever they need to use it for. Yet, if I go 8 miles north at one small town, there's free parking at most all streets that have beach access points. Almost all the small beach towns from Clearwater all the way to the mouth of Tampa Bay charge $2.50 to $4 for an hour. I usually go once or twice a week for 5 hours so we're talking around a hundred bucks a month for my detecting habit. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoinShooter Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Hello sir. I hope your holidays were great! I agree that the Manticore coils are starting to trickle to customers. Even though I am in Alaska with about two feet of snow on the ground, I still have the M8 coil enroute to me from Florida that I purchased a week ago. It seems my coil is having an awesome trip. In the past week it has been to Florida and Guam, it's currently sitting in Hawaii, and awaiting it's final trip to the Kenai Peninsula. Maybe the M8 coil will arrive before the thaw. ? Thanks for the update in your neck of the woods. John 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TampaBayBrad Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 It looks like with the recent Minelab price increase, the M15 coil has gone from $329 to $346 and the Manticore detector has gone from $1599 to $1699. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some dealers that have the 15's in stock but the 8"s the minute they get them its gone in an hour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yatahaze323 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I feel like minelab has like one person making the coils and then ships them out to dealers using a series of row boats and stagecoaches. Its absurd how these coils are still not readily available after the detector has been out for over a year! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be a great coil for hunting relic sites that have a lot of shrubs and overgrowth to navigate around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
