dewcon4414 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Gerry........ ive got to ask, i know its not likely the first batch wont sell for MAP..... but after that ..... if someone say im not military but would you discount me that 15% if i buy one...... would you? With this being a ML discount youd be dealing with less discounts out of your pocket..... and now days, we all like to deal. At this point Ammie im sure ML USA had a distribution plan. So.... ordering now may not get you one for awhile. Rumor has it Kelleyco has a 1000 on order. I know its business, but wonder how ML and Kelleycos relationship is? Ive got one on order...... if i dont get one of the first..... that might not be a bad thing. We'd still be in line, BUT would have more information for our specific area of hunting. I didnt have to pay anything to get on the list....... that might not be a good thing lol. I have Xcals and CTX and im not expecting to get over run by the EQ on the beach YET. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry in Idaho Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Many factors, but for new product it is usually supply and demand. Also, you must realize we do have dealer contracts we sign. If we undercut the product pricing, then we could get canned. Also we are cutting our income. My job is a Full Time Metal Detecting Dealer that goes above and beyond the average. My staff and I write articles, do YouTube videos on education, work directly with engineering and do field testing of proto-types.. We offer 3 day Field Training, gives seminars etc. My only income is all through detector sales. Most folks on here has or did have a working job they earned a pay check. I just happen to enjoy my job more than most. Bottom line, will I offer a discount to a non military person? Repeat Customer Loyalty goes a long way with me. So does the referral program. Attached photo is of staff and I comparing different sizes of coils on undug targets. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Gillespie Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 When I decide to purchase I'll be my brother to order for me, since he is military. I'd love to get him interested, be great to have a brother as a hunting partner since he is the only sibling I have left. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry in Idaho Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 I'll be happy to work with you Mark and or any other military families.. If you already have a favorite dealer who is knowledgeable and able to help you, I totally understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not doubt 1000. A week ago I was informed by one of the sales persons that they were getting 10 orders a day. I ordered from them Dec 6th. At that point, they said I should be on the second shipment. With less than 10 in the last shipment, I think that is not so true anymore. I hoping that the first shipment was by air and there is a boatload full being sent out now. Kellyco does not seem to have a lot of information. I have the Safari if spring comes before the Equinox. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wloch248 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Anyone know if the 15% discount for military would also apply to lets say a Pro Find 35? It is a “metal detector” albeit a hand held one. Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong but I don't know that Minelab sells direct to the public. Do you have a link? Kinda different, --------but wasn't Minelab making a store online?

Gerry in Idaho Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Wloch248, The Military Discount is good on certain level of metal detectors. The Accessories and GoFind series do not qualify. Hope this helps my friend...and thank you for your service. Gerry at www.gerrysdetectors.com USMC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
