you can save a bundle of money buying a balance without the legal for trade certification.
Mettler Toledo JB2002-G/A-F precision balances feature internal calibration, which is NOT offered by the GP5202. Internal calibration is a nice feature, but it drives up prices
considerably. Save bundles of money when you purchase a precision balance with external calibration, like the GP5202. Read more about the benefits of
external calibration verses internal calibration here!
