I need to buy a new scale for the pharmacy. Needs to be sensitive to 6 mg. Anyone know of any electronic scales that can do this but cost less than $100?

I hesitate to ask this, but you are aware of the instrumentation issues with USP compliance? You're not seriously going to risk misbranding buying a substandard NIST/NTEP Class IV scale?

Start asking around the small towns in your area..There are more than a few little operations shutting down..The former owner likely has a few supplies..including a formerly expensive balance gathering dust..maybe even electronic...

Yeah, but if it comes from a third-party source, Weights and Measures has to certify the scale which nullifies the 'savings'.

We're never gonna actually use it, no more compounding. We had a scale with the cube glass/doors but the owner sold it and brought some ******* jewelry scale. The state just requires it to pass inspection to get Medicaid.

Showed this one to the owner and he said it was too expensive. Amazon product ASIN B0146B55VW
I wanted to buy a nice set of mortars and pestles, ointment slabs, glass graduated cylinders, and an organic chemistry lab level glass set, but noo, this mofo is a cheapass. His response was, you can buy it and then keep it if you ever leave the job.

Sounds like the owner's problem to me.

Healthcare Logistics may have what you are looking for. Take a look at the catalog. Hospital pharmacy buy many products from that vendor. For what you are looking for I would prepare $300 as my budget.
