How old can the stain be? In most cases you will be testing articles where you think the stain may have been recently deposited. However, the age of the suspected dried semen stain is not even a factor to consider when doing the CheckMate test. Remember, we're testing dried semen stains. . If the stain wasn't dry it would easily be identifiable as semen with the naked eye. Any live sperm within a deposited semen stain will die within a short period of time. However, semen and sperm are to completely different things. Even though the live sperm contained within the liquid semen will die shortly after being deposited on the underwear, the resulting dried semen stains can live on for years as evidence on unwashed material. Our products are routinely tested on dried semen stains that are over 9 months old. Any garment obtained from a relationship setting is perfectly testable. Is CheckMate Safe? Of course. CheckMate is as safe as any other product on the store shelf. The Infidelity Test Kit was actually created for ease of use by untrained consumers and is so safe and easy to use that there is no need for rubber gloves or any other type of protective equipment.

How many tests can I do? The original CheckMate semen detection test kit is designed to test 5 or more articles or stains for the presence of semen but can actually test over 50 items if needed. We encourage consumers to call us after receiving the product to find out about the many different ways to use this very versatile home use test kit. 1 800 498 5015 What if the guy has had a vasectomy? Yes, CheckMate detects semen even if a vasectomy has been performed. Semen and sperm are two completely different things. Semen is the liquid vessel (ejaculate) in which sperm travels. A vasectomy cuts off the delivery of sperm but ejaculation and semen production remains normal. What if she uses a condom? We do not claim this product works if condoms are being used. CheckMate is intended to be used to identify a suspicious stain once you find the stain.

Author: Unknown Listen to what a former F.B.I. Agent had to say about CheckMate I have had the opportunity to use your product on three different CM178 - CheckMate Infidelity Test Kitoccasions. Not withstanding the obvious reason for the product, it serves as an additional tool for the investigator on behalf of the client to determine if sexual intercourse actually occurred. After being in the business for 20 years it is my personal opinion that most clients involved in these type of investigations are looking for positive proof before they make a decision about someone they are involved with. Surveillance Photos, written reports and audio transcripts all are helpful investigative tools. The ability to determine the presence of semen on garments is another element in the investigative process for the client to use in the decision making process of civil action. For the investigator, the product allows for professional examination on a quick and efficient basis. In any case I am satisfied with the product. Depending on the parameters of the TV spot I would be interested in appearing. Please advise further details.

Author: Unknown TRUE STORIES FROM ACTUAL USERS OF THE CHECKMATE TEST KIT Just wanted you to know that your product not only just proved me right, it also changd my entire life. It was amazing. You can't believe what your product did for me. My wife just got back from a trip to Las Vegas with two of her friends. She even told me that they met some guys and went out to have drinks with them twice while she was there. Of course that was driving me crazy and even though I kept asking her she continually denied doing anything and became very angry and defensive about it. The positive tests were from underwear that came directly from her suitcase and she still denied it, until I told her I was going to do the DNA test to prove the semen I found in her underwear wasn't from me. Then she finally admitted that on the last day there she did take a guy to her room and she did have sex with him! I guess her friends are furious with her now too because they didn't even know she did it. Probably the worst part for me was all of my family and friends saying she would never do it when I knew something was up. You know what's really funny? Ever since she got back her and her friends have been going around saying, "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" too. There is no way to describe how I feel right now. The feelings of vindication and truth are almost overwhelming! She has now fully admitted what she did and believe it or not at least for now we are going to work on things and see if we can fix our relationship. Your company and your product are totally awesome and I sincerely thank you for what you have done for me. I know you won't use my name even though I'm giving you permission to use it, but please keep my phone number on file and feel free to give it to anyone who has any doubts about how powerful your product really is.

Author: Unknown I bought the product for a friend of mine here at work. He wanted me to tell you that the product worked phenomenally well and also said you were a tremendous help.

Author: Unknown Spoke to you on Friday and placed my order. Received my order on Monday which was much sooner than I had expected. Went home and did the test on my lunch hour. My test results were negative. YOU MAY NOT HAVE JUST MADE MY DAY BUT PROBABLY MY ENTIRE LIFE! Instructions were easy to follow and the test was easy to do. I will be talking around the water cooler and I will recommend this to anyone in a similar situation. I was hoping it would be negative. It's something that would have bothered me my whole life but thanks to you now I don't have to worry about it anymore.

Author: Unknown This so important to me I'm communicating this to you via letterform for my own mental/emotional well being. I work for Kaiser hospitals. I'm smart. I'm experienced. Still CheckMate saved my bankroll, the possibility of sexual diseases (currently in the U.S. 1 in 5 have some sexual disease), and maybe more than I can imagine since I am still living with my ex-fiance who is currently looking for her own place to stay since the test came back positiveI had gut feelings and hunches but never any proof. She is a law student so she is gooood at keeping that O.J. concept of "deny everything". (Just in the last few weeks she was talking about becoming a police officer).I did very recently move my credit cards and bank account info. Since my last girlfriend 3 years ago took $15,000.00 when she left me for some millionaire producer. It's almost expected especially since my fiance' knows way too much about my money. I should have given her the name Snoopy. I followed my gut feelings when it came to money. This is what happened. Friday night 5.16.03 I moved my bank account info and credit cards-got all new stuff. While at work early Saturday morning I came across your site. I panic (a fight or flight surge of adrenaline) when I learned I could check for semen at home just as they do for victims of rape. I couldn't believe it. I called you guys from work and ordered your product. I gave you my visa info. Not remembering the account has been changed. IT WAS NEVER MY INTENTION TO RIP YOU GUYS OFF. Especially since I consider you to be my dear life-changing friends. No joke!Jeez to test the very first article and have it turn purple before I let the 3rd drop hit the paper nearly killed me. Last time I was "with" her was 4 weeks ago. I wanted to smoke a cigarette. I don't even smoke! For whatever reason I thought I should start after this test. I called my mother! A 31 year old man calling his mother as if I was in Jr. High or something. I called you gut's next. Then I started to calm down. I had 9 blot papers left. I said a prayer and tested the "clean" underwear that she put on when she came home and wore to bed after taking a shower. She must of only wore them for 4 hours maximum, and again it was instantly positive. I needed to see something not react so I tested the bra. No reaction. So with this I give my intelligent soon to be law degree fiance' a call while she was at work Saturday morning and her only comment was, "your sick".Now today eleven days after my Checkmate test, two intelligent, mostly mature, were soon to be married adults are departing ways- in the best of terms considering what is happening in our lives.Please call me on my cell phone and I can give you the current visa info. Please accept my apology, I will forever extol your product.

Author: Unknown I purchased your product online and received the shipment the following day. Had two pair of my wife's underwear to test. Opened the package and stared at the test kit for an hour, afraid to test the underwear. my wife and i had not had sex in over ten days, so i knew that if i got a positive test, she had in fact, cheated on me. we have been having problems for about two months and things were getting worse instead of better. We have been married fifteen years, we have three children, so there is a lot more at stake here than just two people and their self centered attitudes. my wife kept telling me that she was not and would not cheat on me and that i needed to relax, but in my gut i just knew that she was deceiving me, and i felt so foolish, and small, and pathetic. I had to know. I'm 44 years old, but not a doctor. I don't know the difference between normal vaginal secretions and "flowback" from sex, so any staining or spotting in my wife's underwear was driving me crazy. To say nothing of the way it made me feel to even have to check, and the fact that I did check made me feel even worse. I needed a control test, something I knew would produce a positive result, so I forced myself to seduce my wife the night before I received the test kit, insuring a semen stain on our bed sheet. I say I forced myself because at this point the thought of another man being intimate with my wife made me physically ill. I have never cheated on my wife and never would, so it would be very hard for me to accept that from her. After fifteen years of marriage I love my wife more now than the day I married her, so you can see that administering the test was at the same time very important, and the hardest thing I had ever done. I had the test kit delivered to my office, and had brought the two pair of underwear with me so that I could test them in the privacy of my office. As I said I sat for a long time afraid to perform the test until finally, I did, on both pair of underwear. I performed the test exactly as indicated in the instructions. NEGATIVE!!!!!! I began to sob like a child. The weight of the world had been lifted from my shoulders, I was ready at that moment to move ahead with my marriage. I called my wife at work and apologized for being such an ass the last eight weeks and begged her to forgive me. I let her know that this would be the first day of the new beginning for us, and that our marriage would be even stronger for having made it through what we have just been through. I told her that I love her more than life itself and that life is too short to fight, especially with the person God has allowed you to be with when that person totally owns your heart. I went home and administered the test on our bed sheet (my control sample) just to confirm the difference between the positive and negative results. Oh my God! Instantly it turned a grape juice purple. No mistake about it. No chance to misinterpret the results. My life changed yesterday, September 21, 2004. My mind is at peace, my heart and soul are at peace. That little voice in my head that kept telling me she was lying to me and cheating has been silenced. I will never tell my wife I used the test kit, she doesn't need to know that. She needs to know however, that I do in fact trust her and love her. Thank you checkmate. Thank you all for saving my marriage and giving me back my life and my wife. Thank you just doesn't seem adequate, it doesn't seem like enough after what you've done for me, but that's all i can say. thank you a million times, thank you.Rickp.s. feel free to post this on your site. others need to know how powerful your product is.

Author: Unknown Hi, got your package in 2 days, all the way across the country in Philly. Got the skirt and it tested positive. Confronted her, and she doesn't deny it. I verified the test results with my own semen sample (positive) and my saliva, (negative). Presto..... My sample and the skirt I suspected were both positive. Thanks a million! post this: DO NOT HIRE A PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR AND WASTE YOUR MONEY, GET CHECKMATE AS SOON AS YOU FIND SOME EVIDENCE!!!

Author: Unknown First of all I wanted to thank you for sending the product so promptly. Secondly I think this product rocks! Here was my dilemma... My boyfriend has had this thought that I was cheating on him for the longest time. We would get into really really horrible fights non stop about me cheating on him while I was at work, like I wasn't really where I said I was.. etc.. Anyways he told me about this 'checkmate' product a couple of months ago, I looked for it on the internet and couldn't find it anywhere. Finally I found your site and he insisted that if I wasn't cheating on him I would have no problem ordering it and letting him do the test on this pair of underwear of mine that he has been hiding that he thought might have semen in it. So I of course said "sure I will order this for you" so we could at least stop with the arguments. Any who I ordered the product to my work, (great packaging so no one could figure out what's in it) and brought it home for him so he could do his test. Well it turns out that he got his 'proof' that I wasn't cheating on him and now finally we can go back to the way we were without him pointing the finger at me all the time and he actually believes me now when I tell him where I was and what I am doing. Your company is a lifesaver. Thank you so much!! I will definitely recommend you to anyone that is in doubt of their significant other. You guys are awesome!!!

Author: Unknown The following testimonial is actually from a famous radio personality Just wanted to say thanks "checkmate" YOU SAVED MY MARRIAGE! She has always said she would never cheat on me. But the proof was mounting up that maybe my true love was not so true. After all, I'm her 6th Husband and she confessed to cheating on the other 5. I followed the directions to the letter and carefully administered the tests. One by one the items tested negative! After each test I could feel a tremendous weight being lifted from my shoulders. In the days prior to my ordering the test, which came very quickly by the way, I had every piece of clothing condemned to its seemingly shameful guilt. I even began to contemplate what I was going to do after the tests began. I am so grateful that I first did a test on a bed sheet that I knew my wife and I had made love in. The results from that test were positive in seconds.

Author: Unknown Checkmate is a great product. The most important feature of this product though, is the customer service behind it. They are truly people who care about what is happening in their customer's lives, not just the sale. I am always a little skeptical about ordering from companies that I have never heard of. Your staff immediately answered my e mails and calmed the fears I had, not only about ordering and using the products, but also about whether or not I should be resorting to testing my husband's underwear. Your customer service representatives were wonderful and held my hand not only through the process, but were there with me when the test turned out to be positive. This is such a sensitive subject and you handle it so well. By the time I sent you my money, I felt that a friend was helping me out. I not only got my money's worth and more, but it arrived quickly and more importantly, privately.

Author: Unknown As a matter of fact, I did use the Checkmate product and it was quite successful for me. As I am now in the process of obtaining a divorce :) you can understand my reluctance to put here the details of my story. You could be anyone, yes? However, if you could provide some sort of evidence that you are not my soon to be ex or any of his "playmates" I would be thrilled to tell you about it.

Author: Unknown I believe this product will help many people who stay up MANY nights worrying about the possibility of their spouse/mate being unfaithful. Thank you for being so brave to go forward with this product!

Author: Unknown My experience with the Checkmate infidelity test kit has GREATLY exceeded my expectations, and has changed my life .I had my suspicions that the girl I loved so dearly was hiding a secret sexual involvement with another guy. The stress and emotional strain this deception placed in to my life was beyond simple words to convey. Sleepless nights and days filled with worry and suspicion were quickly becoming the only existence I knew. Though I had never had any previous reason to question her integrity or honesty, my intuition could no longer be ignored. For MY own good, I needed the answers that were so carefully being hidden from me. My problem was that speculation and suspicion was just not a good enough basis for any real course of action, what I needed so badly was PROOF.Checkmate was my answer. I bought their home test kit and with the evidence I carefully collected, I was able to put these questions to rest once and or all. My intuition was 100% validated through Checkmates scientific proof, and with this evidence, for the first time, I was in control, I held the answers that I deserved to know so badly. There is no question what so ever that Checkmates product was the single and only tool available to me to liberate my mind and all my stress once and for all. I made my decisions based on this unique proof, and it was the means to the confession that was required to end this nightmare. I have since enjoyed peace of mind that had been absent for so long.Checkmate has my eternal gratitude for allowing me to move on with my life, with the facts and proof required to do so. The company has gone above and beyond my expectations in the product they sell and the service they have provided. I have NEVER endorsed any company in my 32 years of being alive, until now. They deserve it!! Thanks Checkmate for everything, you have changed my life for the better. You have given me my peace of mind back, and there is nothing more valuable to me. Thank you SO much!!!!!!!!!!!By the way, feel free to use my whole name if you choose to publish my testimonial in any form.

Author: Unknown We have received your product, tested it and found it to work just as promised. I think you have a great product there, and I am very interested in marketing here in Germany. I think 10,000 units in the first year should be easy. We have quite some experience in building up a market in the press. Please let me know if you are still interested. And a quotation for 10,000 kits would be appreciated so we know what price range we are looking. Please consider the weak Euro. Hope to hear from you soon!

Author: Unknown We got the delivery of your package yesterday in sound condition and then soon conducted our own test with our partner using the actual sample "material" for the purpose. The result has been most satisfactory to us. In view of this, we, as well as our partner, have an interest in marketing this item in Japan from now onward under a sole distributorship basis. Kindly quote us your best price of 1000 kits on C&F Osaka (kansan Airport) or FOB Seattle Airport basis.

Author: Unknown Thank you so much. I ordered your kit and I found semen! My husband claims he mastu( you know what) but I feel justified with this to take our 4 kids and divorce him. This is great that you have this product.....now I can make his life hell. Be aware my husband is a prominent business man and claimed when he found out where I got the kit he was going to sue you guys to the ends of the earth ( he will), but now I get a larger portion of his estate. I know I will land up in court.

Author: Unknown Here is pretty much the story in a nutshell: About 4 months ago, I started to suspect that my wife might be having an affair. The usual symptoms, she would leave 2 hours early for wherever she was going, wouldn't let me go with her, etc... After a brief search on the internet, I found your site, and ordered the test kit. The first set of tests showed nothing, that was ok because I wasn't sure that I would find anything that time anyway, but the second set of tests showed a lot! I enlisted the aid of a DNA testing lab to verify the positive test results. It turns out that he also works for the state crime lab! So he was able to verify the presence of semen that Checkmate found, in fact if it wasn't for the checkmate, we wouldn't have known where to look on the clothing! The clothing that was sampled is in deep cold storage at the state crime lab right now! It also let us know that we should be watching INSIDE her car, checkmate showed signs right on the front seat!After all that, I hired a private investigator, got video of her and herboyfriend along with all of the other evidence. Actually the video part is VERY high tech stuff. Her and her boyfriend (who is also married) tried really hard NOT to get caught. And it took kind of extreme measures to catch them in the act!

Author: Unknown As a man experiencing a tumultuous time in his marriage, I was troubled with the mixed feelings. Is it stress, a newborn child, mid-life crisis, or was there someone else involved? Not knowing is the worst of feelings. I was putting my clothes in the dirty clothes hamper and I inadvertently noticed a stain in my wife's underwear. Now I was certainly suspicious. A few days later after she was out of town again I noticed a similar stain. Now I was worried and needed a definitive answer. I searched the web and found out about checkmate. I was apprehensive as you would expect but I gave it a try. I received the kit promptly and discretely and tested both garments against a known semen sample. To my surprise and relief the 2 tests were negative, and the known sample showed positive in about 4 seconds! My marriage is certainly no stronger but at least the worries of infidelity won't complicate trying to fix it or end it. Truly a great product and a good value if you think about what it really does.
