well. here is the story. i sent my garrett ADS7 in to have it repaired. brad from garrett called me on a tuesday texas and said it was done and was being shipped back to me that day, i received an email later with the tracking number. it was april and the weather was perfect for detecting. anyway i waited until the next day, checked the tracking number , still in texas. all is ok. i worked all week, thursday i checked the last scan was still texas. i figured it was in transit. monday came. i checked the tracking. hadn't moved. i felt a little sick. i called brad. he said dint worry. it may have missed a scan. OK, thursday came again. still hadn't moved. i really felt sick now. called brad. he said he would check. he called me in about 30 minutes and said a tracking specialist from FedEx would call me. i felt like i was gonna throw up. anyway, i got the call. after it was all over. the ADS7 was gone. garrett being the A-1 company they are. told me to pick out a new detector. anything i wanted from the ace150 up to the master hunter CZ plus. of course i chose the CZ plus. my stomach settled down. i used it constantly. the third day i had it. i went to a campground and asked my friend that owned it if i could search the swimming hole. he said help yourself. 45 minutes later i had found an 18 K gold ring. with a 3/4 carat marquis diamond in it, a 14k wedding band. and a antique sterling ring with a 2 carat stone. i now have gotten another ADS7 master hunter. if it needs repair. i will drive to texas and wait for it to be fixed.i dint like belly aches.

While it's terrible that your detector was lost, what a great thing Garrett did. Kudos to Garrett and Brad :thumbsup: Customer service is so bad most places these days...I loved hearing this story. Congrats on your new detector.
