Ahorton10 203 Posted September 26, 2015 Like the title says, im wondering what a guy should expect to pay for a used gpx 5000 in good condition with all stock accesories. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nugget108 1,587 Posted September 26, 2015 I've been seeing them go for 3000 to 3600 for a GOOD used one with stock stuff. My buddy just bought a older 5000 in great shape with lots of extas for 3500. I'm sure more people on here who deal with the selling and buying of them will have a better outlook. Good luck.Dan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adam 3,107 Posted September 26, 2015 Agreed ....Once a Minelab is "used" it takes a hit right out of the gate. Personally on today`s date, I would expect to pay between 2,850 - 3,300 . Condition playing a big role... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomH 2,637 Posted September 26, 2015 I have one that's used and has found a lot of gold....it should be worth about 6500 including the fairy dust inside Tom H. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ahorton10 203 Posted September 26, 2015 Hey tom, does it come with a gb2 mini? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frank c 940 Posted September 27, 2015 Does it have chrome louvers ??? I'd definitely pay more for that option. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ahorton10 203 Posted October 1, 2015 Well, I pulled the trigger on a used gpx 5000. Picked it up in excellent used but not abused condition with and got 7 extra coils along with all standard equipment. I can't wait to get it out to the gold fields! If anyone has suggestions on settings to get me started I'm all ears, it's got a few more bells and whistles than my extreme does haha. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Herschbach 37 Posted October 1, 2015 $3k will get you a brand new GPX 4500 with an 11" DD coil and 15" mono coil, three year warranty, and $300 cash left in your pocket. $2699 now.Or a GPX 4800 with an 11" DD coil plus a Eureka Gold and $350 cash in your pocket. Both with three year warranties and all for $2649.Sorry to say a used GPX 5000 just is not worth now what it was a couple months ago. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michigan Mark 9 Posted October 1, 2015 I see one on ebay for $2600 with 3 coils ,,,, He stated the serial number to check with minelab....But do you also need the 2 words that show up in the 'view finder' to verify? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andyy 1,040 Posted October 1, 2015 Nice choice! Just leave a few scraps behind for my 5000 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ahorton10 203 Posted October 2, 2015 Yeah mike, I sure thought the price would go down on the 5k when the gpz came out. I almost got a 4500 but I was afraid I'd wish I had gone with the 5k. I got a good deal on it used with extra coils and paid less than I would have for a new 4500. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alwaysdirty 914 Posted October 2, 2015 Theres a 5000 on Craigslist in Vegas right now for $2900, I bet he would take less. The guy is actually in OC though. Just saying if anyone else is interested. Course I would run the serial number by Minelab and get a picture of the control panel to compare with pics of fakes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
