Default I am bound and determined...

To find a used Fisher 1265 or 66 machine...! I've spent the last 2 hours scouring the US on Craigslist... Googled... nothing...

If someone finds me one, I'll do them a 5x7 portrait for FREE!

Help me make one of my 2008 goals come to fruition!

Dad has a 1265-X that I'd say is in above average condition, however he's in Fla. for the winter & don't know if he'd part with it (hasn't used in in a few years). Can you give me some sort of idea what one's worth? I can run it past him if you'd like.

You maybe could call around to detector dealers that may have gotten one on trade?

Default I might have found one!

I have about 9 hrs. left on an Ebay auction, PLUS I have someone that wants to buy my tiffany ring for $350, so it seems like it might actually work out this time!

(plus, honestly, I really didn't want that CoinStrike...)
