Hi All, Derek here and new to the site.
I'm Interested in taking up metal detecting in the very near future (had one as a kid and loved it.......saved up all the tokens from a Sunday news paper and got a metal detector.........that was back in the early 80's and had great fun with it).
Hope to purchase soon..........could anyone let me know if I can purchase Minelab detectors via their cork office ? or how best to purchase from ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Derek, I am also interested in getting back to this, I'd like the experts opinions on Fisher or nox 600, as i see a fisher for sale at the moment on donedeal. But the asking price is about 150 short of a nox 600, would the new nox be the way to go

I have never used a fisher myself, but I can vouch for the minelab quality. There are also great 2nd hand machines. Xp. C scope,fisher,garrett, minelab are some of the most known detectors. Even if a detector is 4-5-6 years old or even older. They will find targets. Make a decision if you want to detect land, beach or both, and then narrow down your search...

Welcome aboard timmy and derek you’ll enjoy your time here. No matter what one you get it takes time to get familiar with it. And of course it depends on how you’re fixed money wise. They all find junk and the good stuff too. You’re present detector might have its shortcomings, that’s what moves us on. Coupled with advice and seeing the results of other detectorists will make your mind up. As it did me. Here’s to seeing some of your finds using the detector that suits.
