I bought a kit for $42 on Amazon by PuriTest. Comes with digital scales, diamond tester, precious metal test kit, loupe, and miniature file kit. I have been very satisfied with it for the $$$ spent.

Yea, I am looking at the ones on eBay with the diamond tester, the 8 bottles of acid, scale, scratch plate, brass loupe. I have been reading the feedback on them and it is all good. Seems puritest acids are a good brand. I am going to hit the buy it now button tonight!

Hi Fletch. I was going to pick that one up on Amazon but the reviews have me wondering if it's worth it. It seems about half the scales are broken when it arrives. Does the diamond tester really work?
If anyone else has any opinions of this kit or any other I sure would appreciate it.
Thanks!

Everything seems to work great. I've tested every known diamond I have with it and it work fine. The scales work good also with the standard they come with. I am very pleased with it.
