Ok here's a question!
If I had two envelopes to choose from, one was the location of a great sale, and the other a great detecting site, which are you going to take?
I think most would look at the sale as having more potential for monetary value, but of course you never know what a great detecting site could hold. Value of course comes into play on a question like this, but I'm looking for more the answer of what gives you more of an adrenaline rush... and for me I am always going to pick detecting. I can get pretty fired up about making a great flip, but it just doesn't compare to hunting a great site and actually pulling stuff out of the ground. Now if you said I'd make 10k from the sale, and find 1k of items from the ground, well I would take the money... but I'm not talking those type of extremes. I should also add my buying is online so don't really have the experience of getting up, grabbing coffee, and going on an adventure like I do with detecting, so that probably plays a big role for me too. I absolutely love both but detecting is more like a drug.
