Hey all, I have been lurking on this forum for a few years now thinking about getting into the hobby and I think the time has come. Only problem I am having is trying to decided which detector I should go for. I would like to stick to Garret as I have heard about there awesome customer service, which is a big plus for me.
Any who, I was originally thinking about the Ace 250 at first, it seems to be a good detector from what I have read. But then I got thinking, maybe I should go for a AT Pro, from my research a lot of people upgrade to that from the 250. So maybe I should skip a step and jump into the AT. Is the AT more difficult to learn on? One thing I am not sure about is if I will enjoy, or have the time to go out a lot and don't want to tie up $600 into a detector and not use it. Any suggestions for a newbie? Thanks all!
Btw I love in Canada and heard the new coins here register differently than the older ones, would the AT pick them up better?
