Detector(s) used
Minelab Safari
Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
Went to the local Pawn shop on Saturday and could not belive my eyes. I found a Minelab Safari in Excellent condition for $29.00 dollars. I believe I almost passed out in the store!!!. They even included a new set of batteries so I could try it outside their store. After I purchased it and got home, I noticted they had it listed as a radar detector on the receipt instead of a metal detector.
 

Ill give ya 75 for it lol that's amazing find. Pawn shops around my area just have junk in them ao I never stop anymore. Congrats on the find.

Welcome to T-net Tim... I live in Middle TN. near Centerville. YOU BETTER HAVE NOT FOUND THAT THERE BEFORE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!! If your close I'll give you $29.00 and you can keep it. I just wanna borrow now and then. Great find guy.
 

ignorance in action on the pawn shop, a good buy on your part
 

They have a radar detector on the shelf that has a $600 price tag on it. :laughing7:
 

Just how fast was that coin going? :icon_scratch: :laughing7:

Great deal! I hope I get as lucky when I start looking for a water detector!
Of course I'll probably get the one from China with no innards! :dontknow:
 

I never in my life find deals like this. My brother in law bought a $650 compound miter sliding head saw from Home Depot for $230. They had marked the wrong ones down and he was still able to purchase it.
 

Sounds to me like somebody's spouse got mad and unloaded it .......... ouch. Congrats on a killer deal.

Even if the pawn shop got it cheap, they wouldn't have sold it cheap.
 

I thought the deal a buddy got at a pawnshop for a minelab 705 x-terra with 2 coils for $445 was a steal. You beat that in spades.
 

nice,i water hunt mostly but for 75 bucks a bounty hunter platnium at tag sale,brand new....said they were moving to New Mexico from Keys ??? odd i thought
