I am afraid it is also a case of what has been mentioned elsewhere. We will pay through the nose for these goods if they are the best goods available, regardless of manufacturer. All companies need a profit margin and in what is basically a very small market, high prices need to be charged to maintain a supply. Correct me if I am wrong but for the whole of the UK I think there are not many more than 10 - 15 specialist shops which per head of population is not many. Imagine how many would survive if we all said for 12 months no one buy any new detectors, accessories or metal detecting related materials of any kind. I bet we would be lucky to see two.

Ok then, This handheld security wand, designed for day in day out use is only £24.99.

It makes you wander if you could do a cut and shut on it to shorten it and use something similar.

This has now got me thinking laterally Cool Cool

LOL! Have you read the Q&As on that page? One person asks:

Would the wand be able to detect a single 3mm dia. steel pellet embedded within meat?

I wonder what the hell he's doing???
