Wow - what a price!!!  We work on the philosophy that "Pigs get fat and Hogs get slaughtered".  We would much rather make a few percent for a quick turn on merchandise than be a hog and make nothing at all.  We "sell" our merchandise and do not work on memorandum which enables us to operate on very small margins.

Mettler Toledo high capacity, NTEP approved, precision balances are easy to use legal for trade toploaders capable of withstanding harsh environments.  Its all-metal construction provides you with a rugged, high capacity, precision balance ideal for industrial use.  RS232 interface gives SB-32001 precision balances the option of connecting to a printer or other device. 

Mettler Toledo's SB-32001-G/A legal for trade, high capacity balance offers a maximum weighing capacity of 32100 grams and increments by 0.1 grams at an amazing price.  Similar high capacity balances offering 30,000 gram capacities in 0.1 increments can cost hundreds of dollars more.  Save money when you purchase Mettler Toledo's SB-32001-G/A high capacity balance.  You will not find a higher quality, legal for trade, high capacity balance at a more affordable price.

Compare SB-32001-G/A high capacity balance from Mettler Toledo to A&D's GP30K.  A&D's high capacity balance not only costs hundreds of dollars more, but isn't legal for trade.  Sartorius CPA34001S high capacity balance has a list price of $4830 and doesn't offer NTEP approval either.  Mettler Toledo spends time and money getting their products NTEP approved so jewelers can sell products by weight using their balances.  Be careful of these other manufacturers selling similar balances that are not legal for trade because if you are a jeweler caught using these balances to sell gold by weight, you risk having your balance confiscated.

When you're buying precious gold by the gram they must be measured on an accurate scale.  Investigators from the Arizona Department of Weights and Measures spend several days every year at the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show, where they checked scales used by dealers who were selling items by weight.  At the 2006 Tucson Gem and Mineral Show they confiscated 145 scales that were being used illegally because they did not conform to NTEP standards.
