Epic skill uses require the character to have a minimum of 21 ranks in the skill to even attempt them.  With skill bonus items, many of these DC's would be feasible even below Epic levels of play, but sadly, such rolls are not allowed until you are high enough level, and more importantly, have expended the skill ranks to enable this skill use.

Skill bonuses: Items with skill bonuses are capped, so that the maximum bonus allowable at levels 1-20 is equal to the character level of the character using the item.  At Epic levels, these skill bonus caps are doubled.
Skill bonuses: Items with skill bonuses are capped, so that the maximum bonus allowable falls into acceptable limits.  After the Apotheosis, all limits are removed and each referee defines their game as they wish.
 
Thus, at levels 1 to 20, the maximum bonus from a magic item ranges from +1 to +20.  At levels 21 to 35, the maximum bonus from a magic item ranges from +42 to +70.  After the Apotheosis, all limits are removed.
