This is off topic but is there anyone in the NYC/tri-state area that has a tube tester and the knowledge that would be willing to test some of my 6sn7's?

I have various tubes, some sought after but have no idea if they are still strong after years of use. 

If not is there any reasonably priced testers I can buy that aren't too large? I know there are different types of tests, etc.
