Greetings!
My husband has not-so-subtly hinted that he would like a metal detector for Christmas. He has stated that his preference is the Bounty Hunter Pioneer 705 ( which is not happening because I cannot afford it)! Therefore, I am seriously considering the 505. The problem is, I can't find any to purchase here in Australia, and to ship this product, considering the Aussie dollar and shipping costs, this drives the price up to around $500! I am alternatively thinking of the minelab 305 which I can find locally for around $400.
Any thoughts/feedback/advice on these products and where I could find these products at reasonable prices (that would ship to Australia)? Though my husband is a complete metal detecting novice, he tends to excel in proficiency when it comes to gadgets, so I want something that is not too simple, but yet something that is good for beginners (a complete paradox, I realise). Any advice?
Thanks!
