Help on detector value. Thanks

[pvtcook]

I found a guy that has two DFX and M6 detectors w a bull eye pinpointer. He's asking $500 for them. I was wondering if this was a good deal. I would resell two of them and keep one. Not familiar w Whites detectors and though someone could help me out. Thanks

If I'm reading you right its two DFX and one M6?
Assuming they are in working order that seems like a good price, especially if the
M6 has any warranty left.
An out of warranty m6 in good condition is probably worth 300 plus.
I'm not up on the DFX well enough to shoot you a value, but 500 for 3 working machines seems a good deal.
I'm sure someone else with more experience will chime in too.
Hope this helps and good luck!

Yes it's 3 detectors. He said the he boug the M6 about a year ago. Not sure how old the DFX are. He said he gave $130 for the pinpointer. Hoped I might keep the one that was best for relic hunting and sell the other two.

A price like that...I hope they're not hot!!

 

[pvtcook]

Lol no they're not hot. I know him. He's a good guy grew up with him. They may look like crap when I go look at them. Ill know in the morning.

For reference,
I recently paid over 400 for a m6 with warranty left. It's like new.
The value of the package is in the detectors, not the probe, as there are other more popular options availabl
I think you will do well, even if you sell the other two. You'll likely end up with all your money back plus the one you keep.
Keep us posted.

$400 on the M6, $500 for a good clean DFX.

If you don't buy them , let me know who has them and i will get them. Thanks GS.

 

[pvtcook]

Well I was mistaken. It was 2 detectors. A DFX and a M6 w a bullseye pinpointer and a set of white headphones. They are in excellent condition so I bought them. Gonna give them a try. May decide to sell my F75!! Thanks.

Still a great deal!
Nice job.
