Still in the market for a good all around land machine, something that can handle relic hunting, coin shooting, and even picker hunting. If such a beast exist? I'm only going to have room for one land machine and a few coils so I need to to get the most bang for my buck. Already got the Excal and various coils for all of my water hunting.

Here's a link to the machine in question:

Anytime! We really care about our customers and our customer service. I actually go through a few forums five days a week just so that if something like this happens I can bring it to the attention of management and get the issue resolved. Forums are a great place to vent so I make it a point to go through them and always rectify any issues that I can.

Got the wrong detector, they sent me the core instead of the gold. Since I bought it through pay pal, I have to pay for shipping. Don't know if it was my mistake or not. Didn't know they were the same price.

im the same i ordered the new fors relic and paid for it through paypal and got the fors core instead, it was going to cost a fortune to send back so thought id persevere with it, but its so erratic the i.d bounces all over from 1 to 99 to 35 to 75 i just cant get a stable signal, even after adjusting the settings on all modes. it took me nearly a year to save for it and my first impressions of the fors core are really bad, not sure if its faulty or how to get this issue sorted, its basically unuseable and ive only had it 5 days. tried emailing everybody with no reply yet. Totally Fed Up!!!

If you paid through PayPal you were protected and could have got your money back including shipping...

I know this is about the Nokta machines , but I would love to see the Makro Gold Racer reviewed like this . I value Californiagolds review , but would also like to see reviews from others as well . I would also like to see , maybe a head to head review of the Notka Fors Gold Plus and the Makro Gold Racer . No I'm not trying to start anything !!!!
