I see a LOT of dealers now with stock of 600's...so those appear to be caught up.

The 800's are starting to move too, but the waiting lists are still long. Lots of people getting shipping notifications after long waits, so hopefully the situation with the 800's is close to resolving as well, and that will open up the production lines for accessories and coils!
 

My 600 showing up today. It was on back order for four days.
 

Helpful Hint: Check Dealers in known Gold Nugget Hunting States. Some of them have 800's in stock right now.:skullflag:
 

Saw 2 600's in a sporting goods store today $699, asked about 800's and they haven't had one yet.
 

I found an 800 yesterday, paid for it and got it at 4 pm today. I recommend calling official Minelab dealers in the Empire State :) Just tested it out on a bunch of coins and it seems like it will go deep. Also think it will take me a lot of getting used to. My last 3 detectors were Whites : XLT, DFX, and V3i. I'm going to try to take the 800 to a park after work to get used to it.
 

Cabela's has the 800 for sale right now. 10:03 PM eastern time. In case anyone is interested.
 

I keep telling people the 800's are out there if you look. If you seek you will find. I get calls weekly from dealers that have 800's.. I have helped 6 guys get 800's..

If you're loyal to a dealer that's your problem.. He loves you for it but you will wait for an 800
 

I've had two calls in the past week from dealers out west saying 800s were in stock. Both of them were in gold mining country. I had only been on their list 2 weeks.
 

I put myself on a waiting list about a month ago. I got the call Thursday, cancelled my other one ordered in Feb.
FedEx confirmation for Tuesday. Been a long wait..
 

The 800 is available again at Cabela's as of right now.
