This Dectector has not been used for 8 years since I bought it second hand.The machine is in perfect working order,there is a minor scuff on the top of the coil,thats all.The headphones are mine but were used for only about 3 years on other machines I owned.Included in the sale is a joey coil for iron infested trashy areas,although personally I only use the stock coil it is effective.I have installed two brand new alkaline batteries,which are recommened for this machine.This is an ideal machine for a newbie to this interesting hobby.Thanks for looking.
