Color looks good but it needs to be cut. Del

Just figured I'd give a heads up. Someone's trying to pull a Minelab GPX-4500 scam on the Los Angeles Craiglist. Here's the link- GPX-4500 Scam At first I knew the price ($1,550) was to good to be true but just in case I sent an email about it and received this response- "hello ,sure but also forgive me i moved right now at my parents(my father have some health problems and i need to take care of him),and i didnt know this problem when i post the item,so if you decide to buy we will close the transaction via FreightCo,they have refund options,the transaction will be insured and secured ,so please let me know your decision,thank you" Typical scam nonsense! Oh yeah. The email adress is sabinaa2003-3@yahoo.com and their name is Sabina Brooks. I looked into this a little further and found the pics were stolen from a legitimate eBay auction located here- Minelab GPX-4500 Copied the auction word for word! If the Craigslist ad is no longer in the link then the ad was probably taken down. Hopefully someone will read this post and not fall for it. Del

Here's a couple other books someone might want to consider reading to learn about meteorites- Rocks from Space by O. Richard Norton (Chris carries this one)- Rocks From Space This one's a little outdated now but it's still a very good book for meteorites. Pretty much considered "The Bible" for meteorites. Another book (Chris you might want to consider carrying this one) is the Field Guide to Meteors and Meteorites by O. Richard Norton and Lawrence Chitwood- Field Guide to Meteors and Meteorites Another good book O. Richard Norton published before he passed away. Read these books and you'll learn all you need to know about meteorites. Hope this Helps! Del

Dig them all because the one you pass up could be a nugget. You never know what it is until you have the target in hand!

You can never go wrong with any of the Garmin handhelds. I personally use an eTrex Vista HCx with Garmins Topo Software. It's really nice because you can download waypoints and tracks to your computer. I was using the Nat Geo Topographic software but it's to pricey because you can download the same USGS topo maps for free and view them in Google Earth. There's even a free iPhone app that has all the USGS topo maps on it too which is useful sometimes while in the field.

Nice JK there AzOverland. I gotta ask you, where did you get your winch and roof Rack? I'm looking at maybe getting both for my JK here pretty soon.

I'm not paying five bucks to keep some spammers away from a forum. If I had to pay money for a membership on a forum I would gladly end it. You have to remember these forums are to help drum up business for metal detector dealers and charging money for access to a forum has the potential to drive many customers old and new away. If you occasionally post a find or share a tip on these forums it actually helps them sell more metal detectors. Another step in security isn't a bad idea though.

Here's an article- Desert Dispatch This sucks! What I don't get, a few months ago they were talking about ripping the desert up to build a wind farm or solar power plant out there and now they're closing it! Makes no sense to me! Del

I still get a chuckle over the line "we're all millionaires... We just need to dig it out of the ground". Like a lot of newbs they have unbrealistic expectations and the attitude that getting the gold will be easy. I think most likely they will learn about this the hard way because it isn't that easy. If I was a betting man I'd place a bet against them succeeding as "millionaires". I will say though, it DOES take some cahones to try and pull off an operation like that with the limited experience they all have... Or maybe they're just stupid. I guess we'll see.

Here's a list of the Minelab PI models- SD2000, SD2100, SD2200, GP Extreme, GP3000, GP3500, GPX-4000, GPX-4500, GPX-4800, & GPX-5000. You really can't go wrong getting any one of these units. Just because they're old doesn't mean they won't get gold! No specific problems on any of them because Minelab made all of them bullet proof. The minimum price you can expect to pay is ~$800 for a good used army green SD2100. If you can find a used SD2000 (kind of rare) the price can be even lower, maybe around $400-$600? Sometimes you can find a good deal on machines that might have a problem and this isn't a big deal because you can just send it into Minelab USA and pay to get the problem fixed. Hope this helps!

Ohh ok. Somtimes my brain turns off I guess! See you in a few weeks Del
