    We have a set at work, but I hardly ever use it. I tend to just use the Sigma Metalytics.

    aren't they a bit pricey?

    Yeah, they are for what they are. You need a set of them for various denominations and IIRC a set of 5 used to be around $500.

    I never purchased these.

    I visited the site... Yes, expensive, but so are the electronic verifiers. Not convinced, from their site video/audio on the 'ring test' device. Cheers, RickO

    Ridiculously so. Gouging is what it is.
