DOC Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 Dealers today officially received an email from Minelab Corporate that the GPX4500 is officially discontinued for sale in North and South America and they will not replenish their inventory here in the U.S.All of them are gone from Minelab Corporate. I find the wording of this memo rather interesting as it seems to imply that this machine may still be available in foreign markets?Maybe that is just the impression I got from the memo. Anyway, those of us that have GPX4500's still available will now start to see that there is an increased demand as the supply dries up.Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Ron Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Well, Doc, I'm sure there's units in the pipeline and this would be the best way to clear it out while keeping the price up...Kinda simple, I think..Cheers, Unc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjbond Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 And those of us who have them, will love them just as much as we did before the 4800/5000 came along.. we'll hug them and hold them and remind them that in "our" hearts... they're still number one and will always be...... (until of course we get enough gold to buy a 5000... I WANT FINE GOLD TIMINGS...hahaha)..Jen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doer Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 I would like to see a Mini 5500(with Fine Gold Timings) come out, a much smaller lighterweight model in a new more compact housing with a self-contained battery-booster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want Fine Gold but don't need Coin/Relic.. I have an E-Trac for that.JenniferPreloved Placer Forumshttp://www.prelovedplacer.com/forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin nuggethunting Posted December 20, 2010 Admin Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 Hey Doc, I ordered a good batch of GPX4500's that I'm going to hold for awhile. I think the price will increase again in the future. If not, I can always make my money back on them. I'm already getting offers for a good price, so I believe they will even give more within a months time. The GPX4500 is a great metal detector. Take care,Rob Allison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOC Posted December 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 Yep, Rob I know what you mean. I have a buyer right now and no machines to sell him.Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
