Hello Ty, I hope your doing well and out swinging a coil. Being a metal detector dealer myself I am not seeing much profit from my small amount of sales each month. Yes the overhead is tough to deal with and I am just a small homebased dealer on part time sked. Whoever thinks we are making a large cut from detector sales is mistaken. I think it is a love of labor for me Ty. I am certainly not in the right place to be doing this business. I am in a small town of 300 people and most of them aren't the slightest interested in metal detecting. So internet is my best exposure. Ok take care Ty and enjoy the hobby! CU later. John
