That would bring a whole new meaning to "couldn't be any nicer", I hear so often here about Bart and the other Boys. LOL If we're family, give us 90 days SAC.(same as cash). I can hear it now "I got your sac Ray !!". Really. I'd pay 4-6%. Don't manufacturers give distributors 90-120/net? With discounts plus trips and toys flowing. Wish I could get 3% !!

Oh, yes I've heard there's an average 86.6% markup. Just joking Bart. So much for my big boy future bargains and or the first anual BBH, OK Invatational(rumored about). I will be there to dig selenite crystals on the salt flats in Nov/Dec. b-for snow issues. I need a sniper coil for my AT-pro. I can meet you at your favorite park(honey hole). COLD CASH, Bart,................. minus s&h. LOL
You wanted first row, You got it!

They (dealers) are active on TNET, you think they would respond even if it is " sorry we do not finance". At least you would know.

Talk to Mike at Woodland detectors. He will let you make payments until it's paid off.

I would say you would have to put one in lay-a-way....... To get a metal detector financed i would say you all most have to get a personal loan some place...... I don't think any one will finance a metal detector..........

Thats interesting. In Britain though we do pay more for anything, including a can of Dr.Peppers, dealers do offer free finance over any period from six months to two years, no deposit needed and it is a true 0% interest rate.

.................. There yes ....... But in the US i never saw a dealer that would finance a detector...................... All they do is take so much money a month till you have it paid off lawaway they call it............ Then they will give you your detector after they get all there money most of the time it will take 3 to 6 months before you get your detector..................... Or go to a loan co. pay a high interest like 22% and get the money........That's one way the UK is ahead of us..........

TH .... That's what i said most all will take lay-a-way but if you want to finance and get your detector right away..... You will have to take a loan out from a bank or finance co.........

Credit Card would be the closest way to finance I can think of

How long it takes you to pay it off is up to you, if you want to take 6 month to pay it off then it takes 6 months.... I get credit card offers all the time with free interest for 1 year or 1.99% interest for 18 months.... You can put it on a card with no interest for a year, plus the credit card will double you warranty period....
