Found this today on my Front Porch!

When I ordered this back at the beginning of May and it was on back-order. I spoke to George Lesche a couple of times via email and he assured me that the digger would arrive by the end of May. Of course, this was before my detector was stolen from my company work truck! So now I have a beautiful Lesche 'The Piranha' - Model 35 and no detector!

Hope you all had a great long weekend,
Dave

PS. My new AT Pro is at my companies head office in Bangor, ME hopefully I'll see it by Friday!

Sorry to hear about the theft. My gf asked if I was going to sell my old detector. I told her " No way!". Your post just reinforces that idea for me.

Thanks for your post my friend! I've since put 2 new locks on the rear doors of my work vehicle and I've made a claim to my companies insurer along with a police report. What upsets me most is the idiot probably sold the machine to a local pawn shop for $50!

Best of luck to you OD,
Dave

Hey Dave, that's a real bummer about your ATP but I'm glad to hear your getting a new one and I hope your company's insurance comes through for you. There is nothing safe from a thief, they will steal anything.
Nice digger by the way, would do a great job on my dandeloins.
Best of luck Buddy, hope you score big with your new machine.

Hope you have a stellar detecting year to make up for the wretched theft! So sorry that happened. Andi

Thanks very much Dave!
It was a huge loss for me when I found it was stolen and I've been checking the ads on Craigslist & Kijiji just in case it 'pops up". It's two weeks today that it was taken and I can hardly wait to hopefully be using my replacement AT this weekend.

Best of luck to you my friend,
Dave

What a crap thing to happen, then again you have a shovel to bury the POS. Best of luck with the new machine and on future hunts.

Poor dog is even missing your old one, either that or he wants to go digging too!
