Is it an eye loupe or a hand held? A portable hand held is more suitable, so go with a BelOMO 10x. It's the best value for money.
Hand held, will try BelOMO

Haven't bought one myself but these were recommended to me by AP http://www.loupesystem.com/

Quite a few brands/journos have recommended the Loupe System to me. They've shot up in price in the last year, I swear I remember seeing them for about $400 about 2 years ago.

...unless you are planning to use it examine vinyl...
A most excellent recommendation @Darlinboy...I used it to examine vinyl...so I knew precisely why the skipping was occurring on my Rush 2112 album. 👍

Obviously a detour from the topic - but 2112 is an amazing album.

Aren't threadsurrections considered kosher if the poster has 200+ posts?

I'm not sure what you mean?

Dragging up something that was last commented on 3 years ago to not really add anything would be considered a little odd no matter who was going the dragging.

I just was curious if you were alluding to post farming ect. I can see where you are coming from.

Didn't even notice the date on the original posts, just saw this thread under "latest" and replied. Had no clue it was so old

Still an interesting thread.
My loupe has helped me in many circumstances. Sometimes to feel,reassured, sometimes to detect issues that permitted to back of a deal or to renegotiate the price. So far, I have not yet encountered a situation were the loupe will help me detect a fake
