Smile ACE 250 Arrived Today!

It felt like Christmas came early today! My ACE 250 arrived at work. There is one other package that contains the various other extras that hopefully will arrive tomorrow.

The is still very decent here so I shouldn't have any problem getting in lots of practice. I have 1.5 acres of yard around my house to start with. The land used to be wheat field before so maybe I'll get lucky.

Report to follow.

Steve

Default X-mas

I love the feeling of X-mas. Good luck on your hunt. Make sure you post some pictures of what you find, even if it is junk.

Thanks, BIG D! I am also expecting my very first camcorder this Friday (according to UPS tracking info) so hopefully I can eventually post video clips. That is, if I have enough sense to figure it out.

Steve,

Congrats on your new Ace 250! I received my Ace 250 a couple of weeks ago. It seems like a really great machine. I hope to hear many success finds of yours in the days, weeks, months and years to come!

Thanks everyone! There is one more box on the way that some extra goodies that I just didn't think I could do without. Extra large coil with cover, extra lower rod with hardware, sand scoop, headphones with dual volume controls. Both packages had tracking #'s and were insured so no worry. I was told at local post office it should be here tomorrow but if not by Monday then I may have to file insurance. No problem at all though. I already spoke to seller and he said he would just box up another "load" for me and send it out if the other doesn't get here soon. At least I can go ahead and play with the metal detector for right now. I did at least watch the DVD last night and enjoyed it. My wife and I have been very busy between jobs and her mother being in hospital but I'm pretty sure I'll be able to try it out this weekend.
