I was looking on eBay to see if there were any good deals for a mid-range detector that I could use while still trying to get better antiquated with my MXT, when I stumbled across an auction for a Bounty Hunter Camo LS & Tracker IV together. They were listed as being in excellent working condition with minimal wear, and had several images that looked okay.
The biding was around $140 for the pair, so I put in a bid that would keep them under $200 with the shipping. This was after doing about 15 minutes of research, which I thought if I was high bidder, they would be a pretty decent deal. I really did not expect to get them at that price and was pretty surprised when the notification came in on my cell phone. I was actually coming back from the local detector shop, and had just spent a bit more there than I was planning. Picked up a Garrett Pro Pinpointer, sand scoop with a longer handle for the beach, the Lesche Digging Cutting Tool with Sheath, head phones with volume control and a few other smaller items.
I ended up getting them for $166.50 plus about $33 for shipping. So now with them and the other items, it was a fairly expensive week for me.
Now I'm waiting for them to arrive, the seller sent them off quickly and I was hoping they would get here for the weekend, but Monday looks like the day I'll be able to see if I ended up with a good deal or not. The sellers feedback was 100%, so I'm not sweating it too much. 
I was mainly going for the Camo, and figured the cheaper unit would be good for a loaner if I had a friend or someone who wanted to go out with me to beach hunt. If I bring the MXT, I can even invite 2 people along.
Does anyone have either of these models who can give me some input? As long as the condition is decent, I think I'll have done okay?? I'll check back once they arrive to report on the actual condition and if they seem to work like they should. There was also a soft case included that will hopefully be alright as well
I appreciate any feedback.
HH, hope this weekend brings some awesome finds for everyone.
