Garret Probe

[Salty (Karl) Cardiff Scan Club]

No good ringing JA as they don't sell anything Garrett (a matter of principle). everyone in the UK that sells Garrett has to buy from Regton.

I didn't realise that, they can be a bit odd there but to be fair, apart from sending my E-trac to the wrong address (the numpties) they have been pretty good with me. It depends who you deal with.
Regtons aren't too bad, i find they don't like to "haggle" as much

"or i could give a list of names to the shop perhaps, and everyone pays direct, may be another way".

hi karl

another way could be to agree a code word with Laura, which can then be emailed to dw members who have expressed an interest in purchasing the probe. we can then approach detecniks direct, quote the code word and then get the agreed price and emailed direct to us.

Hi Alan, maybe?, my main concern is once i've done the deal regarding numbers, that everyone honors it and goes through with the purchase.
I'm sure i can trust all involved but i'd hate to see the shop let down whoever it turns out to be. unless i can just strike a blanket D.W. Deal with them? as i said before,simply by being a Minelab owners site member i get an automatic 10% discount of Detecnicks.
Also guys and Girls, we need to strike quick before the VAT goes up in January so we don't have long.
I'm going to e-mail Nick at Detecnicks now and regtons in case their checking mails

one way to ensure the deal is to put a time limit of say one week, or whatever u agree with the seller.

that should encourage people to buy one

karl,if the money has to be paid to you i'll drive up to where ever you say with cash cheque or card ,or can phone direct and pay by card no problem any way thats best for you,won't let you down

I have spoken with Laura, I have agreed a Detecting Wales Deal. I have been asked not to post the price but if all those interested would like to PM me i'll pass on the details.
This is just a matter of contacting Detecnicks and saying its the Detecting Wales Site price negotiated by Karl. She has said they are in short supply at the moment and they are waiting for some to come in any moment.

Before you all get too exited, Regtons arn't in until tomorrow, they may be up for a better deal i don't know? I just wanted to let people know.

Cheers
Karl

karl thanks for the update

[Salty (Karl) Cardiff Scan Club]

Something i should have mentioned is the deal done with Laura isn't volume dependant, its a Detecting Wales Deal, so if only 3 or 4 of us decide to buy, the price will be honored, it stays until the vat goes up then its plus the extra.
I have a feeling i may be able to negotiate a blanket DW discount for members, lets see how this goes.
As i have explained to all who have PM'd me, i'm trying Regtons tomorrow to see if they can offer a better deal, i wont disclose to them the Detecnicks offer as that's not ethical or fair on Laura.
Thanks for your patience.
Karl.

Update, i'm awaiting a call back from Regtons.
Thanks
Karl.

Final Update.
Regtons have come back with an offer very slightly less than Detecnicks, however this would involve me purchasing 6 units (no extra discount for 10) having them delivered to me and me distributing them out to those interested. Given the extra carriage costs and monetary logistics i feel its probably better to go with the Detecnics deal.
However if you feel you'd rather me get the 6 from Regtons i will.
Regtons have warned these are in very short supply at the moment, they have stock but dont know for how long.
List price at Regtons is £83 Inclusive of Carriage (this is the non discounted price)
Unfortunately its a case of supply and demand at the moment, with these being in short supply, getting discounts of any significance has proved very difficult.
As i said i would recommend going with detecnicks as its a club discount and not volume dependent, you pay them and its delivered to your door first class recorded all in for the price i've P.M'd those that were interested.
Cheers
Karl.

I am interested too, usually been using whites bullseye, but find them very unreliable and not water resistant.

Since having se pro the need for a pin pointer isnt as frequent, but in sand and wet conditions they come into they re own.
