Well my last purchase through paypal had to be canceled and re sent. I got hit twice in my bank account. I still am not able to add money back to bank account as it is pending......tried to get a hold of support and clicked on page after page and got nowhere. I have always used PO money Orders. You can call and see if they have been cashed and they are safe. Walmart MO also have that option. Had a MO lost and Walmart did take care of it, but took a few days is all. Keep your receipts if you use walmart, I take pics with my pnone of the actual filled out money order in case there is a problem. So many horror story's out there, know who you are doing buisiniess with.
After saving my finds for many months hunting with a Bounty Hunter 202, I made my first major purchase and got a used F75. I sung the F75 for several months with mixed results. So I sent it in to First Texas and got some bad news. The detector had been dunked in the ocean and the coil was toast. First Texas guys took pity on me and got me all fixed up. I now only buy new when I can.
