Why not just get one straight from Bazooka? You aren't that far from them, or have them ship it to you?

Thanks Kevin!!! I've been checking that almost daily. When one comes up relatively close to me I'm going to jump on it big time. Can't afford one new, so I'm looking for slightly used and not abused.

If you aren't opposed to a drive, give Todd a call and see if he has any "imperfect" sluices for sale--for a discount! I drove right to his property in Coloma and walked away with a darn fine Bazooka Prospector, which is going on 3 seasons with zero issues.

what's your budget? A 30 to 36 sniper will run circles around a standard 10x36 inch sluice. Without classifying so less gear to carry. There are numerous places around us that have ample flow. I don't know how much material you normally run. But, if you hit a spot with a sniper and stockpiled four buckets of material you want to run, again no classifying...its gonna take you maybe 20 minutes to run...MAYBE...sub 200.00 for a sluice minus the need to classify is a great deal.
You never said what size you wanted. If you want a prospector there are a few under 200.00. Those are a bucket a minute sluices when running well and even at less than perfect conditions run serious material. As mentioned above it is going to be a while before you luck into one used. and something to note we have seen them seen used sold for full retail...and even at a premium!!
