how about this garage sale find
I'm a real estate agent and the market has been so bad lately that I took a part time job as a driving instructor to help supplement my income.On Saturday I went to go pick up a new student arriving a couple of minutes early, his mother told me he would be a couple of minutes. She was busy setting up a garage sale looking around I seen a metal detector in the corner, so of I thought I go look and see what she had.Thinking it was a low end machine to my surprise it was a whites XLT asking her what she wanted for it she told me 50.00 dollars.I ask her if she had the instruction she said she would look. Not only did she found the instruction for it she found the whites hard shell caring case the two batteries cases and ear phones but not the charger I guess looked disappointed she ask me if I would give her 45.00 dollars for it being that I already have a dfx and they are the same charger gave here 45.00 and left with my new machine. I needed a back up machine although I wanted something other then a whites for a back up for 45.00 I wont complain.

Great find. I think I would have fainted when she said $50.00.
MXT, and just dumb luck.

Put it on eBay and you'll more than double your investment and probably get enough for the backup machine that you desire. Lucky Duck!

Rom. 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;
Rom. 10:10 for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.

Congratulations!
Unfortunatelly they don't do these Garage sales here in Germany 
In Ebay the guys are too much aware of what a good detector costs.
And there is no nice woman around that could sell such a maschine
with no idea of its real value - LOL
