Guess The Price of the GPZ 7000 ?

[LuckyLundy]

Well I just loaded my truck up and told my Wife, I'll be gone for a week or more! Hope I run into a nice little patch...what's up with the exchange rate?

Judging by the lukewarm to cold response so far maybe the next contest question should be how many months until minelab lowers the price. And bonus question how many thousands of dollars do they take off?

Really surprised the gag order is still in effect now. If you want to kick someone right in the wallet you should probably hang a carrot in front of their nose at the same time so they dont pay as much attention...

Actually paid in full early sales are going much stronger than I would have guessed considering the price of the unit. Seems there is a lot of pent up demand after five years.

 

I am not sure the gag order matters much. The brochure actually does tell a person pretty much all they need to know, unless they choose to disbelieve it.

Jasong; Minelab  never has forced anyone to buy anything...the Getting Kicked is entirely voluntary!

Well at least Minelab won't have every owner of the GPX 5000 screaming at them, not to mention all the folks who bought an SDC 2300. A $10,000 minimum advertised price pretty well protects the resale value of previous Minelab machines.

[Sourdough Scott]

I have the sdc2300 and 5000. Unless I get one hefty lump. I won't be purchasing a 7000 anytime soon. As much as I would love to.

That's a lot of gold!!!!!!

Yeah my wife would kill me if I spent that much on a piece of mining equipt... Lol lol lol

So it would be cheaper for me to fly to AU and buy one there....

Someone said they are 10900AUD

Thats 9265 AUD....after 15% off for military

Then 9265.00 AUD equals 7222.00 USD

7222.00 should be US price after military discount.....

What's up?

It has always been cheaper for an Aussie to buy Minelab detectors in the U.S. than in Ausrtalia and you can bet that has had them quite unhappy with Minelab. Looks to me like Aussies can finally buy a detector made by an Australian company cheaper in Australia than here.

The way it was they paid way more for US detectors and way more for Australian detectors. Stuff is horribly expensive there. Looks like Minelab finally decided to help the home team.
