Default Garrett GTAx 400

I saw a Garrett GTAx 400 for sale at a garage sale the other day. It seemed like a good price at just over $100.00 but I was unfamiliar with this model. I didn't know if it's a good one, bad one, not worth my time? I told the guy I was interested but couldn't make up my mind and if it didn't sell to call me. He called and left a message. Is this a decent machine? I don't see them advertised, are they an old model? It looked pretty knew. Is it worth considering or should I hold out for something better?

Well the one that took its place is a $500.00 unit. I would offer him $75 and see if he comes down. Heck why not, Beale.

I think I'm going to hold out for a better machine. Thanks for the help!! When the time comes and I want to spend for a better machine my wife won't ask why I need another one after having purchased a couple all ready!
