Maxfynd Gold Detectors

Hello,
Great site you guys have, very informative. I'm new to metal detecting and was looking at ebay for a metal detector when I found this: (I can't post links)

The Viblan EpROX ROADRUNNER

Has anyone ever tried these before and do they work as claimed? Or is it just another ebay scam?

I was hoping to buy a SD2200D for gold detecting if I can get it past the missus. Have a borrowed Sovereign GT at the moment. Wanting to do panning around Ballarat too when I get the chance.

Ha ha! ROFLMAO Sorry Dale but that would have to be one of the funniest detector ads I have ever read.

I think it would be wise to give them a miss mate.

G'day Leftcliq, Suggest you rightcliq & delete that from your watching list. Check out what members of this great forum are using & you wont go wrong. I use a Sovereign GT for beach & relic detecting , Great detector for that but have never seriously tried golding with it.
Cheers

you are right dale, its a scam. you may as well point ya old fella at the landscape as use that thing. you would get the same result!

Looking through the sellers feedback it seems he's sold at least 6 of these at $800+ !!!!

Same seller as the first piece of crap.

Really Dale, your on the right track looking at the Minelab gear. If you can stretch the dollars go for a GP Extreme at the minimum if you can. Better a 3500 or 4000.

If you can't, an Sd2200 will find you gold. The best model of the SD 2200's I'm sure others here can point you in the right direction.

Hi Toadskin,

Thanks for that. It'll be mainly used for gold detecting. Just have to see how much I can spare. I saw a SD2200D on ebay for $1500 and I thought this wa a good buy. I'll have a look around for a GP Extreme though.

There's alot of characters on this site - good to see

Thanks for your advice.

G'day Dale. Welcome to the Forum.

MaxFynd Gold Detectors.Hmmm.Lets cut it short hey?The Name itself must be in code.Aha,I've got it.Translated it clearly states, see if you could "Fynd Max" once his done you for your doe.

Cheers kon61.

MaxFynd and also Viblan and a few others are all our old shonky scamming mate Vincent Blanes AKA Rangertell

Anything this bloke sells under any of his "brand names" and Aliases is nothing more than useless garbage.

I will certainly give him credit for imagination and being able to glue bit and pieces of cheap junk together and con people into believing it is gold finding equipment

Cheers Ric

Gday Dale

I have no idea why this bloke has been able to get away with this sort of thing for as long as he has, why he has not been tarred and feathered by some of his buyers completely alludes me as well, maybe most are simply too embarrassed to admit they bought some of his crazy gizmo's.

Anyway the only real way to get gold is to walk the ground with a good detector, save your money and buy something made for the job, an sd2200d would be a good place for you to start, lots of accessory items are also available at reasonable prices say from ebay or detector shops to suit this machine too.

cheers
