where to buy scales

ok i wonna get some digital scales but i dont know where to get them. i dont want something to expensive just enough to weight my snakes and there food. i really dont want to order them. ive already looked at walmart and didnt see any. any more ideas of where i can look?

Not sure what your idea of not expensive is but here is what many use http://www.reptilebasics.com/Digital...p-1-c-258.html.

eBay. :gj:

There are several avail on Target.com. I think they start as low as around $15. Just make sure you get one that goes up to the potential weight of your snakes.

go to sams club they have a nice one there for 49.95 really nice. i bought one off of ebay years ago that never gave a good reading it bounced around to much

I got my gram scale new off eBay for $11 and it's worked great for me for a year now, and it has a max capacity of 6kg. It came with a bowl too.

I use this one, $20 and it weighs up to 5000 grams.

Head shops usually sell scales that weigh out in grams.

The one I went to though, their scale was top of the line and $60.

i just got a scales from bean farm.

www.beanfarm.com

Does this work well?

I got my digital one at target... it works great and was about $30. Ill be looking to get a larger one soon

yes it works well, its not digital so you have to look closer to read it tho.

If you don't want to order a scale online you can check out major department stores like WalMart, Meijers, Target, etc. for a digital kitchen scale. Also big box stores like Sam's Club or Costco. You can also check office supply stores like OfficeMax for digital postal scales. You should expect to spend between $15 and $40 depending on the scale. Some will only go up to a certain weight. Due to the fact that I keep adult female ball pythons and boas we have the 7001DX which goes up to 7,000 grams.

I know that you don't want to send away but it is hard to beat the value of the one that I bought for $19.95 at AmericanWeigh.com and will handle ball pythons up to 11 lbs. (reads in grams or ounces) nicely and has a bowl.

So how many people give you funny looks when you ask for a digital scale that reads in grams ;) Got mine from reptilebasics.com
