December 6, 2005 -- Metaldetector.com is the website of a second generation, family-run hobby metal detector business in Southborough, MA. Detector Electronics Corp., the company behind the website, is now in its third decade and has transformed itself from a local hobby retailer into one of the largest national retailers of hobby metal detectors in the country. Company founder Sondra Bernzweig said "many of the big box retailers have started carrying cheap, toy quality, imported metal detectors, based on decades-old technology. She went on to say that her company has been "steadfast in selling quality metal detectors, featuring the latest technology, starting at less than $100."

"With the holidays approaching, now is an exciting time for us to introduce many people in to this enjoyable outdoor hobby. She went on to say, "A metal detector is the perfect gift. The hobby is one that adults and children can enjoy together. The hobby is both fun and educational. It presents a great chance for learning about local and national history while researching finds and new sites to explore. From children to retirees and everyone in between, the hobby has so much to offer. It is the perfect pastime for someone who has everything, so that they can go out and find more! How many kids have you met that were not interested in finding buried treasure?"
