If one is sold out while the other is readily available, then there must be a reason....

Maybe other parts of the country are different, but around here, long time Garrett users don't go to the old parks with the intent to find old coins anymore. They hit fields now or look for jewelry. In the last 3 years of our club having hunts in local parks (3-5 per year), I can think of 2 silver coins TOTAL being found by garretts and fewer than 5 wheat pennies total. All of this is happening while myself and others in the club are finding 3-5 silver per club hunt with another brand.
I got the ace 350 for a starter detector and i couldnt be more pleased with the results so far from the machine...ive dug dimes at 9 inches of dry solid packed gravel and pulled 11 silver from 1905-1944 from the old local parks we garrett users dont go to ....1 was even a war nickel and the garrett nailed that singnal too ..now im not saying i cant buy a better machine but for now its not needed for my first year im sitting with 2 ounces of silver and ive just begun ..

As far as prices, dealers are restrected from selling below a set price with out losing the right to sell the product line if caught which is why you see prices the same, with the "freebies" changing.
