I'm looking to buy scale, it needs to have onces and troy onces. Can you recommend a good brand, probably gonna buy on ebay.
Easy to find -if you want non-electronic, you can find triple beam scales on flea-bay. If you want electronic with digital readouts, Harbor Freight has them for less than $20, item #97920. I'm not sure if there is Harbor Freight in P.Q., though.

I would also say that if it measures out to 0.01, it is good enough for me. Just keep in mind that 1 ounce = 28.35grams. This might help to understand the capacity of the scale. Hope it helps.
What kind of Scale have you purchased You are not making it clear with your post here.I bought a cheap one on Ebay and i guess it's not sensitive enough, i put a coin on it and it doesnt even register. I dont know much about scale that's why i would like someone to suggest a scale that's sensitive enough to weight coins.
Nice sharing. I think to search it local first is realy best option. And if we could not find it then we should go online to find some online sources..!Your local head shop should have a nice selection of scales.
The one near me has a dozen or more different digital pocket scales as well as old school weighted scales for folks to weigh their "tobacco products". They also carry 1/2 oz, 1 oz & larger gold vials as well as a bunch of other items useful to treasure hunters.
I use one from the pawnshop it lights up and stuff to lol. It does grams oz and all that great stuff. Food scales work to.
