I posted on here a couple of days ago about my buddy that wanted help on the Ace he got used .. So he called garrett said he got a woman with broken english that he could hardly under stand ….. He is really PO he said that after buying Garrett detectors all his life on that used $100.00 Ace he bought .. Garrett wants $40.00 to look at it plus parts plus for him to pay return shipping .. He said he might as well bought a new one .. after all there charges … I told him when you buy a lower cost detector used that is what happened at times …. You should just buy new on a lower price detector …. I do not know if he will get it repaired or not i think he might be done with Garrett after all these years
What is wrong with his detector? $40 sounds about right for a repair shop to spend an hour to inspect and diagnose a metal detector that is out of warranty.
Did the detector not work right when he bought it used? If that is the case, he should be mad at the seller, not Garrett.
