Haven't been asked many questions lately so your overdue :)

Have you ever used any of the gold or silver test kits on unmarked items?
If so have you any tips which ones are good?

Not yet, but I need to get one, I've just been going by the magnet test and what I know. Took the last UFO's to the jeweler and he did a simple scratch test since he was purchasing the other items I had that were marked, I really didn't have any doubts, but didn't know the purity on the unmarked gold stuff.

Was considering something like this:
http://www.amazon.com/Electronc-Precious-Kit-Culti-PuriTEST-DigiWeigh/dp/B005II4VPE/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1386182623&sr=8-2&keywords=gold+test+kit

but will probably purchase everything separate, since I have files and a very good scale and it's a bit cheaper.
Definitely need a loupe...this getting older shit is for the birds. :zombiefuck:

Diamond tester I bookmarked was this one:

I need one of those too.  :laugh:

I mostly just need the chemicals and a touchstone for gold and silver, though a diamond tester if cheep would not be a bad thing to have.  As to the scales I already have a few including one that's lab grade.  The loupe at 30x is a bit strong for a hand held, for 20x and up a scope is best I have bought them at tag sales my current one is a Nikon zoom that's 8-50x and like your Nikon stuff I found it curbside :headbang2:

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

There is only one truth and it is that people do have penises of different sizes and one of them is the longest.

  I got that too.  Another good answer would have been the Rev. Sun Myung Moon.  Except that he HAS been married.  :nerdy:

My kid used to call it the "little purple monster" because of the way it roars when you first start it up.

I refer to it as "the purple pig" quite often because of how often you have to feed it.  :laugh:
