    Jimmy,
    I got the same loupe and also this:
    30 x HANDHELD LIGHTED MICROSCOPE for JEWELRY etc & CASE - eBay (item 370326809866 end time Jun-03-10 03:15:25 PDT)
    (370326809866)
    the difference is huge, the scope gives higher mag than the loupe. The loupe also is not a triplet(3 lopue construction) its one thin and one very thick grooved loupe. I wonder if what I got is not new version made cheaper to save cost?
    This scope by the way is better than the Radio shack one, it has brighter illumination, great detail, the position of the light source and be adjusted. The scope is much easier to move along the edge.
    I am actually impressed.
