This is the DFX Metal Detector.
I bought it a couple of years ago. I cost me about $1,000.
Sure, they have models that cost $200 But nope,
I had to have the best one.
I had to have the shiny one with all buttons and lights.
It’s a sickness
Anyone who knows me, knows I have to buy the best one
and I if can’t afford the best one I have to have the next best one.
Friends call it the $1,000 paper weight the $1,000 coat rack,
the $1,000 clothes hanger... and so on, you get the gist..
These days I keep in thrown in the spare bathroom shower
just to get it out of the way. Recently my husband found Travis, our cat
curled up on top of it taking a nap.
*great*
Anyway
I had some loose change on my desk this morning
and it reminded me of the DFX.
I probably used it about 5 times total
and when I say “I” - I mean my husband would walk around with it
(I don’t want to carry that thing, it hurts my arm)
and when it beeped I made him dig the hole.
I pretty much just stood there and waited anxiously for him to unearth that box of diamond rings and gold coins that I had envisioned finding.
Here is a list of what I actually found
• Rusty Nails
• Endless Pull Tabs
• Bottle Caps
• Wire
• Chunks of Unidentifiable Metal
• Cans
• Did I mention Pull Tabs..
• Couple of Quarters
• One Indian Head Penny (I was actually excited about that one)
• A Dime
Yeah, so it was definitely worth the thousand bucks...

All I can say is "I Told You So"...Please consult with me before your next "Big Purchase".
WOW...this brought back serious memories. As a jr high kid my buddy Rick had a MDet and we all got into it. For about a year of my life, using a MD was all I did. I loved it...and also had visions of collecting valuable coins on So Cal beaches.
Sounds like this needs to go EBAY!
I borrowed a cheapie metal detector from a friend who bought his at walmart for 200 bux, you can see my findings HERE. I had about the same luck as you but I had so much fun finding "lost treasures" right in my front yead!
For the love of God!!! Please sell that thing and be rid of it already!!!!!!!!!!!
