Hi there i was just woundering if the mk1 locater is still worth a buy or should i just go and get the mk3.

Mk 1 still the daddy mate heard bad things about the mk 3. Expect to pay top money for a mk 1 though.

prefer mk 1 very pricy on ebay but where do you get them repaired. got a old one needs a new dial and recalibrating?

Yea I am the same I have an old mk1 but box is broke so didn't know if I should replace as I am starting ferreting again but has been about 10 year since last went and found the box and collar but it's broke.

 

What bad things have you heard as I was going to buy the mk3?

i have a mk3 i just prefer the mk1 i have 3 mk1 collars so if i could get the locator repaired it would be a bonus for me.
