Measuring Scale

I don't have a scale yet. Where is the best place to get one? How much are they usually?

Thanks

At wallmart, they sell some for food like the one on the pics (on the attached file) for about 15$.

Great scale for a great price...

This is what I have (6001 Series model). It weighs up to 13 lbs in 1 gram or 0.1 oz increments, and has a tare feature as well. The good part... its available in Canada Shipping was FAST (a few days). It is all you could want for under $100! Similar scales were priced over $600 so I was pretty happy. It is super accurate and perfect for weighing anything from a medium sized boid to a hatchling leopard gecko And it looks great, too

I also use the same scale as Linds. I have two, they are great, the best choice in my opinion. I've had mine for over two years, and they are both working great and I have had no problems. Two thumbs way up.

I use the same scale as linds. That particular model is no longer in production. I got mine for 39$ when they were clearing out the stock. The above is the link to the new model from an online canadian retailer. I found these guys to be the best deal over all even after shipping.

I got mine from ebay. Cost me 20 something dollars. They're on there all the time. weighs in 1 gram increments up to either 2ooo grams or 5000 grams, I forget which. The guy has them on there all the time. I've had mine for over two years and would be lost without it.
