Steve Herschbach Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 The detector is a minor detail though I am sorry yours was not one of the early deliveries. More to the point Brian, congratulations to you and your wife on your new addition to the family!! Minelab will have missed out what with your hunting and video skills. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IdahoAl Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 This is starting to sound like someone who thinks everyone at a birthday party should get a birthday gift, I pre-paid because I had the money to spend at the time, not to be first in line or anything like that. I hope to get mine this month. If I do then I do, if not, well I will get it when I get a call from my dealer(Gerry). and I am OK with that. My hat is off to Minelab for their marketing strategy. That is my 2 cents worth.....IdahoAl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northeast Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Have just woken up here in Oz and read the next 2.5 pages of this thread since my last post. I do apologize to people that thought I was stating fact re: the 5% thing. Completely made up and I thought that would be apparent. I was just hoping the guessing would stop. It didn't Steve's algorithm has more substance to it anyway, mine was too simple 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JP.Diggzzit Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 1 hour ago, Cal_Cobra said: I'm thinking about canceling my pre-order. My dealer let me know that he was receiving a whopping TWO units, and that I'm #8 on the list, and likely will not see it for some time. Not anybodies fault really, but I'm starting a new job next month, and it'll be an exceedingly time consuming job for the foreseeable future, and my wife and I are expecting our first this summer, so that likely will put my detecting on the back-burner until fall. By then, hopefully, the Equinox will no longer be a unicorn. Until we started observing that the receive date was such a moving target, I had really anticipated receiving it by some time in January, or at least February, certainly not in March or April, although as the pieces of the puzzle started to land into place, that picture was becoming more in focus. Hope it works for everyone as much as we are anticipating it will. I am canceling and picking up my refund tomorrow. I prepaid early October...was not given a choice. He is receiving 1 - 2 units with no solid date or numbers for 2nd shipment. They are "hoping" to have preorders filled by end of March. ALOT can happen financially and in life within 4 months. For me, it's increasing property taxes (So. CA) and house projects. I just can't have nearly $1,000 tied up any longer, possibly another 2 months. I may own one in the future...just not now. The CTX 3030, Excal II and Dual Field have been working very well for me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
