I'm looking for a scale to weigh my leos. If anyone has a basic scale in working condition that measures in grams, and they would like to sell it at a reasonable price, please respond here or email me at:

You can get a scale that measures in grams at Walmart in the kitchen doo-dad section!

True. This is what I did. I bought a starfrit for 16$ in sale. It measure in grams, ounces and quart.

Ironically, I found a weight watchers and some other scale (spring, not digital) at a thrift store for about $1.

nicolenadia,
I've seen the WW spring scales. This might be ok but will take more time from you to continuously calibrating it due to it being a spring. Eventually, you will want to invest in a scale. If you can find one that will measure done to the tenth of a gram, this would be great.
Good luck

I just picked a digital scale up at walmart. It reads gams and ounces. It was $29.98 and its the best scale i have ever owned. My last sclae crapped out on me and i paid a little over $80 for that one. My new one from Walmart blows my old scale away. This scale is well worth the $30.

The good thing about the scale is that its large, and comes with a tray. So I can weigh male large adutl dragons with out a problem and with the tray the geckos can't escape.

I bought a scale off of haddaway's from ebay or they have a regular online store. The scale I got is a pocket jewlery scale and has a brushed aluminum tray and a clear lexan plastic cover and blue backlight. It goes up to 300grams and it has a .01 gram capability. I love it and it cost me 2.99 and 12.00 shipping so it was around 17.00 altogether. I believe that this was a great deal. I have seen these go fo 45.00 plus elsewhere.
