We have NO remaining stock on the Acculab VIC-6kg. Acculab is a victim of deleveraging and the brand Acculab has terminated production on December 31, 2010. The information listed below on the VIC-6kg is for reference only for those people researching the specification on a VIC6kg scale they already own.
Yes - Acculab DOES NOT EXIST in 2011 since Sartorius decided to shutdown the Acculab brand name. The Acculab VIC-6kg was resurrected as the Sartorius AY6000 but these are not available since Sartorius is experiencing excessive lead times. If you can't wait months for delivery we recommend you consider the following alternatives which are typically in stock. Comparable scales with 1 gram readability would be models like the MyWeigh KD7000, A&D SK-5000WP, ECS 6KG, ECS 10KG, Ohaus SP6001 or the Ohaus NVT16000/1 Touchless Sensor Scale. If you need additional help finding a digital scale that is in stock give the experts a call at Precision Weighing Balances since we carry scales from many other manufacturers.

Before you decide to purchase an Acculab Vicon digital scale
we suggest you review the My Weigh product line.
For those of you shopping around for the best price in digital portable scales, My Weigh makes the least expensive electronic digital gram scales
we have to offer. These affordable scales may not have all the features that an Acculab balance has, however as far as
basic weighing is concerned, My Weigh portable scales can accomplish the task at hand and save you money.
Acculab balances are excellent weighing solutions, but often times, our customers are looking for a lower cost balance without all the bells and whistles included in an
Acculab balance. For our customers seeking a simplified digital balance, with less features than Acculab's products, we recommend My Weigh brand balances.
My Weigh's KD7000 balance offers 7000g x 1g at a much more affordable price.
Another great buy is the ECS-10KG Electronic Compact Scale 10000g x 1g that is priced much, much less than the Acculab VIC-6kg. You can get much more weighing capacity for less $$$.

We don't sell based on warranty because balances don't break people break balances, but if your into warranties, My Weigh is longer.
We can't sell Acculab balances at a lower price and continue to stay in business, however we can offer a more affordable alternative. My Weigh digital scales may not have all the features as Acculab, but if you need a low cost scale, My Weigh is the least expensive we have to offer.
