WTB Ice Fishing Flasher

I'm just starting to get into Ice Fishing (this coming season will only be my second) and I would like to purchase a sonar unit. However I'm not in a position to spend the money on a new flasher. So if anyone has a working unit that they don't use anymore I would like to buy one for around $100.00 give or take.
I know this might be a pipe dream, but I figured it cant hurt to ask.
PM me and let me know what you got. Thanks.
Tight lines and God bless!

    You're going to have a hard time finding one in that range.
    I picked up a used Vexilar FL-8 a couple years back for $150...

    Your best bet at that price would be an old Lowrance Fish-Lo-K-Tor

    Never used one, but have seen them used. Same idea as a vex with less target separation.
    You can still see your jig if you get it adjusted right.

    Here's one that was for sale here last year, could check with him...

    Thanks Pork. I sent the guy an e-mail.
    I know $100.00 is probably way cheap to expect to find a working flasher, but things are tight right now, and I just figured I'd throw it out there and see what happens. I might be able to go as much as $150.00, but that would be the absolute most.
    Anyway thanks for the help I apprecieate it.

      I should have a older Lowrance flasher that takes 2 lantern batteries laying around here somewhere???
    Only used it a couple times over the yrs. Might have another portable flasher around also??? But that one is prob. worth more money to a collector since I think it might be one ov the 1st on the market. Give me 'till Sunday if interested in the Lowrance for $60. I'll send a photo & more info., Slippery Rock area.

      Located the LO-K-TOR, seems to be in good condition. No cracks on the case, transducer cord looks good & no corrosion in the battery compartment & the sensitivity switch seems ok. It's a Lowrance FISH LO-K-TOR. LFP-150. If u think u might be interested I could have the old lady pick up a couple batteries & test it out in my outside bait pond. just pay extra for what the new batts. would cost me. Worked good when I put it away but never know 'bout electronics.

    Take Care,

    Sounds great! If it works I would like to buy it. I might need you to give me a demo on how to work the thing just let me know and we can work out a time I can come get it.
    Thanks!
