Local customers can now Try It Before You Buy It—making it easier to find the detector that’s right for you!

Nov 05 2026 Leichelle Cotney

We know that sometimes the final decision for a metal detector purchase seems overwhelming.

We developed the Try It Before You Buy It Option for our local customers who have narrowed down the search but really want to experience the detector before their purchase.

Once a customer has researched detectors and determined the features that are most important to them and maybe even rented one in our current rental program to get the "swing " of things, it's time to Try It Before You Buy It.

How it Works:

Call ahead to make arrangements with Aquaterra. 812-402-3747
A detector will be set aside for you for use during a specified 48 hour period.
Complete and Sign the Try It agreement and provide a rental deposit (to cover late return or minor damages if incurred).
Pay a Rental fee of $100.
Upon Returning the detector at the specified time, you have the option to purchase that detector with a discount of $100 (the rental fee previously paid) or simply return the detector to us.
The rental deposit is fully refundable if the detector is returned to Aquaterra within the specified 48 hours and no damage was incurred.
