Best scale to buy?

Don't get sucked in by the "high end" scales man, I got a fusion one for 25 bucks from a head shop in Toronto and it works great and came with a weight for calibration

Because for years I've not known if I'm being ripped off or not (if I was, it was never obvious, though). I want to know that I'm getting at least 3.5g in an 1/8th, or 14g in a half-ounce, etc. What do you all think is the best scale to buy? And as always, money IS an object :). $35-$60 is my price-range. What would you all recommend? Of course, I could go a little bit over $60, but nothing too drastic. Thanks Rating: 5

yeah dude if you spend 60 on a scale you really got ripped , you can get very very good scales fomr ebay for like 15-20 , or I got mine at a "smokers discount world" and it was aweosme till my dad found it , it was like 26 bucks , worked damn good

i know i got ripped, but i was pretty desperate at the time. was this smokers discount world in hamden by chance?

Well this was my latest and last scale purchase. It is a food scale but can be used for anything else. It is made by SALTER they have been making scales for over 300 years, and there's a lifetime warranty. Heres the good part>. It can weigh GRAMS/OZ/LBS. It is so accurate! It can weigh from 1 gram to 11 lbs. Yes 11lbs! Here's mine is the picture below.

They make other models too> Salter - Salter Scales, Salter Kitchen Scales, Salter Scale, Salter Aquatronic Scale, Salter Glass Kitchen Scales, Salter Housewares, Salter Digital Scale, Salter Cooking Scale, Salter Baker's Scale

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know what you can find around the house that measures out to 200 grams? My friend got a good scale but it didn't come with a calibration weight.

I Would ratcher my scales to be to .1 of a gram not to the nearest gram.

I need to recalibrate my scales but i dont know how to and i cant find a manual online anywhere i can get it to come up on2 the calibration screen but then if i hold zero it cums up with all these numbers and i put 150g on it and press cal then it cums up with 150g and then ses pass but then when i go to test it with a penny that i know is either 3.4 or 3.5g it cums up with 8.4 so im not sure what im doing wrong

wow i went on abit there lol im stoned ::bonghit:

Well that's why you buy more weed to weigh! J/K I mostly use it for ounces to lbs. and use my smaller scale to weigh 0.1

Thanks for the replies everyone. I didn't realize you could get really good scales for so cheap. Thanks again :thumbsup:.
