Where to buy weigh-scales for parcels, etc.?

[Inzane]

I was just wondering if anyone knows where you can buy weigh scales, similar to what they have at the post office?

Something that has decent accuracy (ie. better than a bathroom scale obviously), can weigh items as light as a couple hundred grams (small packages and envelopes) as well as things as heavy as car parts (wheels, brake rotors, etc.).

No, this is not for any illegal activities. I'm just looking for a good scale that can serve double duty for:

- weighing parts that go on or off my car
- getting better postal estimates before I mail stuff off (via Ebay or whatever)

Thanks!

generic home-item type places like home outfitters, walmart, pier one or whatever will carry scales in the kitchen section. don't expect them to weigh your "envelopes" to anything better than the closest gram tho haha

staples has quite a few to choose from

If you go to a commercial food eq store they have very accurate scales capable of having 200KG on them.

I'll get you an address tomorrow when I go to work.

Yea im not sure if that will do, especially when it comes to weighing tires/rims etc.
