Hmmmmm, one week. Yeah, OK.
:stop:......You sound like you don't believe me but believe me i make a lot of extra money like that.... :thumbsup: :thumbsup:.......All treasure is not in the ground or underwarter.....
 

I believe you on the buying and selling. What I don't believe is that a detetor gets a great reputation over six or seven years of use and somebody buys one, really learns it and gives it a real workout in one week and says it's not good. Nobody is that good. Nobody.

I can tell if i like a detector in a day i don't need a week.............I dont like the feel or a lot of thing's i just don't feel right with ...when i use some detectors and then i won't give them a chance...i just get rid of them................
 

Ha... Funny post! The reason you've been hearing so much about them is because they are the cats meow in a do all detector. I've only had mine about a week and I love it more and more each time out. I talked to A LOT of people and many different multi-brand dealers, and met a guy who tried to sell me his DFX, only to mention in passing breath that his son found 2 nuggets with his MXT (2 1/2 Ounces) but he was just selling his DFX to get more dredge equipment ;-) rrrrrriiiiight!

There are other detectors out there, like the Minelab 70, but when I looked at it, it was like the Fisher F75, kinda plastic and such. Plus, I'm tired of buying things built in other Countries. If you're nice from here on out, I won't litter all your favorite detecting areas with "Made in China" foils ;-)

Nice boat ;-)

Like I said, I don't care how good you are, nobody can give an good review on a detector after one week.

OK, if you had said this to start with I probably never would have responded. I have been detecting since 1978 and I know I have tried many that I did not like right off the bat. Does not mean they were over rated, they just were not for me so I didn't waste time trying to learn something I did not like to swing.

[/quote]You got it If i don't like it i will not try to use it...will not try to learn it....To me the best detector on the market is the ...Minelab Sovereign.....but i have been useing a...Sovereign ...for about 16 years....and if some one don't like it or put's it down i don't care i know what it doe's for me............
 

What did you not like about it? Was it the performance or just the "feel" of it. I respect your opinion. I have picked up more than one machine and I just got bad vibes about it long before it ever got in the field.  If your first feelings is not good about a detector, car, girl, most likely it will not work for you and you will not ever be happy with it period.  I remember the first time I picked up the top of the line Minelab. Just did not feel right to me and when I turned it on the feeling just got worse. Im not sure why I had this negative attitude towards it because I know how AWESOME of a machine it is. I do not own a MXT and I have heard nothing but good about it but the bottom line you didnt like it and everyone should respect your opinion. And a big congrats on making a profit on your sell. I just sold a Fisher that I have had over a year and made money on it. It amazes me on how well any machine holds it value. Its just about the only electronic device I can think of that will do that.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:...Well ...Kindafound....It is like this the guy i sold it to said his wife is unhappy with him getting that MXT or he has buyer remorse so i will take it back and try to use it if i like it i will keep it if not i will sell it i can't lose i only paid $300.00 plus tax for it at a pawn shop..............I tried Minelabs top of the line detector also and did not care for it.............But i am a real fan of the ..Sovereign......
 

I've had my MXT for about three weeks now, the more I use it the more I like it. I'm just now starting to get things dialed in to where I can consistently "know" when I've got somthing under the coil and when its junk. It will def. go really deep. Took it to a spot last week where I had gone over with an ACE 250 about three weeks prior, pulled eleven more coins from the same general area in a few hours time. A really great machine from what I've seen so far..........
 

I agree. I'm really quite surprised at this unit. I searched my yard pretty hard core with my Fisher F4, and when I got the MXT the following week, I was totally surprised to be digging QUARTERS out of the exact same spot where nothing was there before. These were at decent depth, maybe 7-9 inches or so. There are more too, as I only dug up two and had several more quarter hits on the screen but got tired. I'll dig em in a few days. Kinda fun knowing somethings there that you're going back for!

The only negative thing is that it's a little heavy with my Sun Ray DX-1 on there, but hey, my arms are looking great! ;-) I switch arms every 20 min or so anyway. Also, IF I had my wish, the trigger would lock back as well as forward. That way I could just pop it into pinpoint and search to my hearts content with my DX-1. I do lots of sand/bark stuff.

Has anyone modded there switch so it's a 3-way lock? I may hit radio shack and see what they have. Any reasons why I should not do this, other than warranty?
 

Does the MXT have Auto ground balance, and depth gage like the DFX and XLT?
 

If you're so anti- White's, never liked them, then what in the heck are you doing on a White's site? ???

Developing treasure by buying & selling treasure hunting equipment is really not treasure. It's a simple profit derived from a business deal.

I don't consider my paycheck or Army retirement check to be treasure.

If you just came here to gloat over the profit you made on a piece of White's equipment just think of the potential treasure you could have found with your Minelab if you wouldn't have spent this time on the computer. ;D
