I am thinking of buying a New (not Used} Whites V3i
I have seen prices as high a $1700 and as low as $1349
I have looked at Amazon and they have it at $1349 and with my Amazon Gift cards
I got from my credit card company would put the price at $749 (not counting tax}
I would like to get the Detector cheaper and pay no tax .
I know I can go to KellyCo but I am sure there must be other places?
Not in any rush to buy one since I will not be able to use it till Spring of 2015(Poconos area}..........JT

without having too pay tax also?.Thanks.JT

Wait until just before spring to purchase one. Maybe you will get a windfall for the holidays and don't forget income tax return time around March.

Buy one direct from Whites. They have an xmas sale every year and without wireless headphones about $1250 -$1299 and with the headphones somewhere close to $1700.

You will not get one any cheaper unless you go to a refurbished one.

It comes with the SpectraSound Wireless Headphones
What made me jump at it besides the price was the Whites
carry case and a free bounty hunter pin pointer without me
having too run from place too place........JT

You did well. You have your self a detector that pound for is the best on the market. Next time you run into a guy with a CTX laugh to you self because he paid more than twice what you did. Great purchase enjoy the detector and all it can do.

Take a look at the whites forums. Sly old fox is a v3i expert he post a tin of great programs and there are many postings with tips and suggests to help with the v3i. But once u get it you will be out performing any other detector out there. Good luck and happy hunting.
