Price a Coiltek coil and tell me that they couldn't be a tiny bit more competitive. I do not endorse piracy at all but I can see a window for offering less expensive alternatives to the real thing. Coils are low tech.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

I went to some of those sites and even use a couple of them for my business use. There's nowhere that they offer the exact same product as Coiltek. They don't even look alike butt hey mention that they are better and cheaper. Now that's just business.

Most of the Knock Off VLF Detectors are just a bit different then the original case wise or lables.

The Coils they show are Way too close.

Even carry the Name Coiltek.

Why are minelab detectors cheaper in the U.S.to buy? Minelab are ripping us in oz.

I did look into that once and discovered that Minelab takes advantage of the extremely high import duties on detectors made outside of Oz to increase their prices. As much as I like them technologically, I find their business practices to be deplorable. They ask you to be loyal and buy Australian goods all the while sucking every penny from the buyer.

Go with Jack Lange's incredibly powerful machines instead. You won't regret it.
