True enough, it does seem rather foolish to invest $35K into a "locating contraption", without first obtaining significant proof that it will do what was claimed or "implied" that it would do.

Yet, strange at it may seem, these types of "blind" purchases are made. Generally, they are made by a minority of individuals who have incredible amounts of cash resources, and really have no concern if the contraption actually works or not. They would rather purchase it, try it for themselves, and if it proves to be totally worthless --they simply toss it to one side and never give it a second thought.

These types of individuals are small in number but they do exist. Frankly, their biggest concern in life is their "health", because financially they really have more money than they know what to do with.

What (or who) do you think keeps some of the largest LRL dealers (with the most expensive dowsing contraptions) in business? It's certainly not the average weekend coinhunter/treasure enthusiast, who has a 8 to 5 job 5 days a week.
