  I see that the weight has been submitted as 695 grams. I purchased a cheap Anko
kitchen scale and it was off by 15 grams, showing a weight of 710 grams.

There could be many reasons, including temperature, humidity, a different production
(factory) or batch (especially for carton and paper - instructions), stickers
or not, etc.


  This was what I expected of the cheap scales flooding the market nowadays. I obviously
need to find something better than cheap Chinese junk scales for weighing purposes.

I don't think a 2% difference for a Set means your scale is OFF.


  Does anyone know of a decent brand of weighing scales accurate enough to weigh
a LEGO set sealed in the box?

Sure!

Not the same price anyway.

But again, I don't think we can get ANY weight that's "quite the
same" of a Set around the world, and depending when and where.

Nice set of scales. I didn't see any spec sheets or pricing information on
that site though. Unless there's some distributor that sells them through
retail stores where I live, I might have to contact them manually.

Specifications are always nice to have, doesn't matter what it is, accuracy
has always been important to me.

Cheers ...
