Well folks, I'm generally the mild mannered Clark Kent detectorist, not much gets to me. I take the good with the bad and try to take life with a smile (and the occasional glass of bourbon, Buffalo Trace, to be exact. :) ) But if there is one thing that gets my feathers ruffled, it is dishonest people. I recently traded for an alleged deep CZ3D calibrated by Tom at around 12.5". I knew that this was at the upper end of the detectors depth capability, and should have known by the "not able to tell the exact depth" statement by said trader, that something was up. But alas, I was hoodwinked, bushwacked, sold up the river...


Upon receiving the CZ, it's obvious that it is 10.5" that someone attempted to alter, not the claimed 13.5", or even 12.5". Luckily, I'm only out a couple hundred bucks as the detector I traded was worth more than an "average" CZ. Buyer beware, all it takes is a quick message to Tom to validate the depth as he has all of them documented. Well, my glass is empty, time to go. Thanks for listening, and thank you to the FM members who tried to inform me of this fraudulent unit. It was too bad I heard of it after the detectors were shipped.
 
Don't feel to bad as 10.5'' isn't to shabby either. I would take it out and see if the in ground performance match's the air test results. I think any detector that can hit a dime over 10'' is a hot detector. You may dig a few deepie's and like it after all.:clapping:
 
Thanks Harold, I consider 10.5" as average for this detector. Not bad, but not what I was told. Asides from the dishonesty of the fella, it's more of a mental factor as many of my sites can only be hunted once or twice a year. It helps knowing I have a deep detector...
 
Bummer! OT...You getting over this way for some wet work this Summer? It might help you feel better or get even with some big gold?...

:surprised: Wow, I didn't mention any names, did I. Boy, I really feel duped now...
 
I recognized the depth claim and remembered his listings. He'said been known for negative feedback on that other forum.
 
I had some issues with Chris Kennedy on a deal we was working. Hopefully we will see him removed from the forums.
 
Sorry, I had the findmall name wrong. uselesspulltab is what he goes by here. Although I think he already got the boot here.
 
Heck, just get yourself a stock AtPro and call it a day....its all you need over here, you might want to get the blue phones depending..

Maybe he didn't know the exact depth exact according to Webster's is " strictly accurate or correct with no doubt. There are so many corrupt sellers on here I research before I buy. WHEN IB DOUBT BY NEW EVEN A FRIEND CAN SCREW YOU OVER.
 
My one rule: Don't buy ANYTHING used--there is Always a reason why they are selling it and the positive reasons are Greatly outnumbered by the negative ones.
