Fisher f44....

[Jamiedon1]

Hey everyone. I just made an offer on a Fisher if 44 with 11 inch D. D coil and cover and an F pulse pinpointer through first Texas on. EBay for a $150 and they accepted. It is that a good deal or is it too outdated?

The f pulse new is selling for $120.00
It’s a great pin pointer. The f44 is a good starter machine. If you picked them both up for $150.00 that’s a good deal.

Yes, I did from first Texas brand new F44 and F pulse. Thank you, I Appreciate the response. Will it be better than my eurotech? Pro, since it has Ground balancing

I try to read as much as I can. So I don't bother all you guys too much

I also started with a Eurotek Pro. Will the F44 be better? Yes, but IMO more from the DD coil than the ground balancing, unless you know your local soil gives the ETP trouble in that regard. Will it be better than a Simplex or Vanquish? Probably not... but that is still a screaming deal you got, and if recent ebay listings are reliable, seems like you could flip the F44 and end up with a free pinpointer or even a little profit.

That's a good deal, only issue with them was with the membrane buttons going bad.
