Grifon detector

Hi,

My father showed me an offer in the Express yesterday for two detectors -
one was an LCD model? I think they were priced around £70 and £100 ish. On
one picture I could make out the name 'Grifon' and that was about as much as
I can tell you. Does anybody know any more about the detectors and are they
really the bargain they claim to be?

TIA

Really suited to kids that want big biceps.
You'd be lucky to find a bin lid at 2" depth !!!!

Seriously, if you want into the hobby, it's advisable to pay around
£150-£200 on a good s/h machine for starters...
