The new Garrets looks quite good - 200i, 300i and 400i.  With the R/$ going south the prices to start off in the hobby is becoming ridiculous... :P

I know! I bought my 250 for only R3500 a few years ago. Look at them now

I paid around R4500 3 years ago for my Euro Ace 350 with DD coil and everything included. Bag, earphones ext.

Now the Euro ace is around R7800 and the 400i is Just over R8000. The coil alone is about the price I paid for my Ace 350.

The AT Pro is already around R18000 at doculam. If I bought it 3 years ago I could have paid just under R10000 for the AT Pro.

Well it was a good investment. Just like buying a house. Prices keeps climbing.

I agree that it is a good investment. I should have bought a few detectors years ago and sold them off now

Barney,
For what it's worth, my 400i arriving in Nam this Saturday.
I've asked fellow md addict Clarence (Salvo) to test/evaluate for me as he's by far the most jacked-up guy regarding tech matters around here.
I'm sure he'll gladly give you his feedback/assessment on the unit once he's done taking it for a "spin"
cheers
