Can anyone recommend any decent weighing scales?

ones I had before were cheap and nasty and they broken now so if anyone can recommend some decent ones at reasonable price be much appreciated. hate getting stuff and not having scales around, need to make sure not getting ripped off
 
I already got those ones mate I was looking for scales to weigh bigger stuff.

Deano always found these bang on.
Sure there's Uk sellers if you have a look

Had mine for years, been subjected to the elements on camping trips and still going strong.
Used them for substances that require a level of precision and never had any trouble.

Those are the ones i have too, some ebay sellers sell them much cheaper than that if you get them direct from Hong Kong. Even with the postage you will probably still save at least a tenner. Some vendors also sell the exact same model at even more inflated prices. I have found them to be plenty good enough for my needs, though i dissolve my benzo powders in PG and use volumetric 2ml oral syringes for accurate mearurments of low doses. I have found it to be very tricky / if not completely impossible to accurately measure anything to 0.5mg - 1mg in powder form, even with 0.001 scales like those.

Even if you have the skills to handle weighing <1mg of powder I dont believe they are accurate at 0.5 mg - 1mg dose ranges like they claim, which is no good atall for weighing benzo powders. With potent stuff like PV and MXE that still needs weighing there is much more margin for error, so its not gonna make much difference if its a few mg out. And with the less potent powders that require ~100mg doses and upwards you just cant go wrong with those scales.

If you are looking to weigh larger amounts this model is good:

The lid serves as a tray, and you can measure up to 100g on these. I have a set of these somewhere too but havent used them for years as i havent made any bulk purchases. Apart from kratom, which is safe enough to eyeball the doses anyway.

Your never catching .5 - 1mg on those scales MDB.
They seem to kick in at about 4mg but hold pretty steady for anything upwards.

Which is how you have the best chance of weighing any single-digit amounts. I wouldn't exactly bet my life on the accuracy but if you put something on the scale to get it going then they tend to be much more reliable at weighing anything on top of that. But really, just use volumetric measurement for any really dose-sensitive materials as it's far more reliable for very small weights.
