I just bought an ace from kellyco an it says

[jasonbo]

FREE & Optional Detector Accessories From Kellyco - $313.55 Value

So I did a little math of what they provide ( they are providing the prices ) it comes up to 173.10.

Hmmm my first treasure tale.

Could be some one at kellyco hit the wrong numbers on the adding moshine or he could have been drinking moon shine. I would say that Kellyco does have a way of streching things a bit.

should have traded their extras for a extra coil, I did, it works a lot better than their extras

 

[Jeep]

In very fine print:

(shipping for accessories $140.45)

 

[Kellyco]

The price you see there, which says Free & Optional Accessories, includes the $140.00 value of the Automax V4 you can purchase for $20.00 with your detector.

I think they did mine because I bought an ETRAC. they let me trade all the extras for a 6 inch excelerator

Ok, then what exactly, if anything (in the ad) , is FREE then? The whole thing sounds a bit confusing which COULD lend itself to being deceptive.
Advertising should be clear and concise. Small print should be outlawed.

Especially for Oldie like me.

 

[Sandman]

What did you expect, truth in advertising?

 

[sniffer]

I just got off the phone with Kellyco. the guy I talked to was a total idiot. I told him what I wanted and he told me where to find it on their website. huh? first of all it's not my job to find stuff on their website when I'm talking to them.
second, when I tried to find it, I couldn't. and the guy basically treated me like I was lying to him. and when I asked to talk to his supervisor, he told nobody was there. I need a job where I get paid to sit on my butt and get paid and nobody
is around to supervise.
they may be a advertiser here, but that doesn't mean I have to buy anything from them, EVER.

 

[Jeep]

I have never had any luck with them either.

Too much drama on the phone. I think they forgot who the customer is.

I do not do business with them sponsor or not.

I prefer the smaller dealer's, some of who are on Tnet.

I may not get anything "free" but I keep my self respect and peace of mind.

jasonbo: You could offer Kellyco a Round Rock Donut for a extra Garrett coil.

 

[Jeep]

MMMMmmmmmmmmm Donut

 

[jasonbo]

actually had one this morning. ruined my diet again

 

[sniffer]

I'm still on the seafood diet.

[GopherDaGold]

Thank you for the clarification.

 

[mick56]

Thats some nice stuff.

 

[wwace]

When I bought a 250 from Kellyco it was very clear I thought. I don't go for the misleading stuff either but instead shop for value at best price balanced by service.
