I got an acculab scale on eBay a few years ago dirt cheap. Try eBay and labx... you might have to watch them for a few weeks to find a great deal, but they are there to be had. Just make sure that what you are getting can measure up to at least 20 or 30 grams and has at least 0.1g incements and you should be fine.
Price is usually dictated by the maxiumum weight and the accuracy. For something that can weigh up to 200g at 0.01g increaments, I wouldn't expect to pay more than 100 USD on an auction.

Edit: dur forgot to put where i got them from.
http://myweigh.com/onlinestores_usa.html
I got mine from Ol Will knot store listed on there. It is like 46 now, but i sware i paid less for it like a year ago 40 i think, i might be trippen tho i dunno. Check out them online stores look around for a good price. Ebay would be the 2nd place id go too, but a precision unit isnt somthing id buy 2nd hand.

Ohaus Dial-O-Gram...had it for twenty-plus years. Accurate enough for all but milligram/microgram dosing (have a friend at Bayer Labs that helps me with that).

Swim has a pointscale 150 for measuring his fungus, seeds, herbs, bark and rodents. It measure down to .1 grams. He got it for 40 bucks from myweigh.com. For his "other stuff" he spent 350 bucks on an acculab VI-1mg from http://www.discountscales.com. It can measure down to .001 grams (1 milligram) It makes him feel much safer about research materials.

I stole my scales from the school too. I have 2 scales, one 200g x .01g, the other 100g x .01g. Not very portable but very accurate. They both need to be plugged in but I'm not complaining.

My scale is rest a coat hanger with two plastic dishes on each side taped on, balanced on a fulcrum (I use whatever I find) in the center. Then I put an appropriate amount of coins (knowing how much they each weight) on one side, and my mushies on the other, until the two sides are equal, at which time I know how much they weigh (equal to other side's coins). Reason I do this is because A) I don't measure my weed, I leave it up to friends since I pretty much bun with the same ones all the time, B) the only time I need a scale of my own is for mushies, which is like twice or three times a year, so I haven't invested in one. I would, but I'm not very independent in life (ie job/car), since I'm 16.
