What's a decent inexpensive scale to get that will measure mgs and grams so someone doesn't have to guess doses on like dmt or coke or whatever.
-
surf ebay, find what you're after, then get someone else to buy them for you!!!
Or create a one off fake account and get em yourself!
Dunno about brands, I never spend more than AU$20 on scales!
But if its for personal use, I wouldn't worry too much! Buy 'em yourself off eBay, go out in your backyard and collect a whole bunch of different stones and pebbles, start a folio describing some of these stones: colour, shape, feel, WEIGHT!
LE: Why are you buying powder scales?
INNOCENT: I'm an amateur rock collector and the weight of stones, to the .01 og a gram, is important to my documentation. (and because you're smart, you have documentation!)
I've got a metal detector and I live in an area where alluvial gold is quite prevalent! Got 2 little jars with just under an oz of flakes and small nugs from a few good prospecting trips! I never been asked about my scale purchases, but I'm confident i can cover my arse!

LoL I heard they use them to weigh jewelry......I'm not worried about buying off eBay though. I just wasn't sure what good search terms to use. I'll try milligram scale like. Amazon listing above. Thanks

The Gemini-20 is garbage unless you can make a (relatively easy) mechanical alteration to the weighing plate. The one at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003STEJD4/ is much better.

What alteration is that? I have the scale so i'm slightly curious.

Type in "digital scales" into your search engine.
Then, look for the one you want at a local sex or smoke shop.
One brand of scale will be more prominent than the others, but do your research and pick what is most comfortable for you.

The weighing platform isn't perfectly flat and is just within the tolerance of the pan, so there's a chance your pan may not fit snugly in the tray. Putting a dime on top of the plate, then putting the tray on top of it works. I just epoxied a washer to the tray and it works better now. Before I fixed it, the 10g calibration weight registered ~20mg either way for seemingly no reason.

£7 pocket scales, weigh 0.1g -500g, black plastic with detachable lid which can be used to weigh your items. very good value for money

Dealextreme also got a couple of good .01g scales.
