How much $ to pay for this used Garrett package? (AT Pro and Pro Pointer)

[Flex68]

I have a local guy who wishes to sell a 5 month old AT Pro, still in the box with all paperwork, DVD, manual, etc., plus a Pro Pointer.
Both are like brand new and look to have been barely used.

So what would be a reasonable price to pay?

He hasn't put a price on it but is seeking 'offers' or 'trades' and I am interested to learn what everyone thinks would constitute a "good deal"


Thanks!

$650. You are saving about 50/60 plus dollars. Buying The AT pro from kellyco would cost you $600 Plus tax and then there's the pro pointer at about $110. So $650 might be a good offer .

As a dealer, I'd probably list that package below $600. ($500 for detector, $100 for Propointer ). If he wants more than that, give me a call , I might surprise you ;-)

I emailed the guy about that package (I'm in SWVA too). Sounds like he is offering a pretty good deal. I almost took it but decided to go with a cheaper new Ace 350.

Thanks, but I would never offer that much on a used one.... I can pick up the detector and the pinpointer, new, for about that.

Thanks, Wayne.
I agree that one would expect to, hopefully, pick these up for less than $600 from an individual / private sale.

Judging from the online pricing I have been able to find, it might not be out of the realm of possibility to expect the Seller to accept $450-500 cash.

Just was curious to see what folks here thought!

I wouldn't buy used to save a $100 on a mid-high end detector. The full warranty is worth more than that to me.

Hey metal detecting stuff.

What would be a good shovel to use along with metal detecting. I was on your site and cant decide. Mine snapped while digging through a lot of small tree roots.

I got my used detector back from the guy I sold it too. At pro, pinpointer, knife, waterproof headphones. All for 450 lol

 

[Flex68]

This guy no longer has the waterproof headphones, apparently, and is looking for $500 for the detector and pinpointer.

Stop highjacking my thread.....keep it to PMs, yes?

 

[newgoldfinder]

LOL...Sorry about that. $500 for the detector and pinpointer. HMMM not bad.

Offer him $400. You can get it brand new for $600.

 

[Flex68]

Offer him $400.

Yep!

Go with the Sampson shovel, I got mine from Wayne. $400 is the price I would put on the package too, no more.

i agree with getting the sampson, also got mine from Wayne. 400 would be a good price for used at pro if it is in good shape.

 

[HighPlainsHunter]

How many of you would sell your AT Pro for $400? I know I wouldn't.

 

[RobRieman]

That's the chance you pay when you buy something new and don't like it. You never get your money back out if anything when the buyer could buy a new one for near the same amount with no warranty hassles, registration and get to open one brand new in the box. Try selling a new car after you pull it off the lot.

Got another 7 photos from the guy. Both units do, indeed, look nearly brand-new....just a couple of small scuffs on the bottom of the coil.
Both still have the original boxes and all the materials they came with when new.

Unfortunately, I also found out the guy is a 17 year old kid with no transportation. Just to see/test them I would have to drive 1.5 hours each way....he did say that he would reduce the price by $25 to compensate for this.

Undecided if I will make the trip this weekend, or not........

Don't let emotions dictate what you pay. It shouldn't matter if the seller is a 10yo girl, 17yo boy or 90yo grandma. 3 hours of driving? That's a hell of a lot more than $25 of my time and gas!
