Minelab CTX 3030 from High Plains Prospectors.

A while back I contacted High Plains Prospectors to inquire about the Minelab CTX 3030. I was very hesitant due to the price of the 3030 but ended up deciding to go for it. First of all the customer service was excellent, Drew with High Plains Prospectors reached out to me and answered my questions quickly. And provided a customer service experience like it should be, and how it was in the past, highly impressed and I will continue to do business with them for that reason.
Shipping was fast and well packaged.
As for the CTX 3030, I absolutely love it, and while I have a ways to go to get full benefit out of it, I do not think it is to much for a beginner as I had read from some of the reviews. I think it is a great machine that will take even experienced operators I little time to master but in no way do I think it’s too much for an amateur.

Great people that work there, as they are avid metal detector hunters. They know the products they sell and are willing to help you find the right product for you. I would recommend them to my friends and I will go back and buy from them in the future.
