Cheap is not always better...

Why not look at the Detector Pro Headhunter PI or the Whites Dual Coil PI...

I'm guessing that the Tereso Sand Shark is fairly cheap but I don't know too many who own them... the two I mentioned are very deep and decently priced..

The Headhunter PI is around $700. The White's can be purchased for around $800.

The Goldpic is non motion and is more a D.I.Y. project.
If you want to go that way there's commercial quality P.I.'s you can build, if you have the time/skill, listed on the Geo Tech forum.

Best cheap, but well made with excellent performance, is the C-Scope 4PI which in the U.K. is about £200 $360?
Its a development from the much more expensive 6PI which was designed by Eric Foster, the King of Pulse.
