brand really doesnt matter, as long as it weights to the first decimal (7.1 ounces is an 8 ounce package)
i got a weighmax off ebay for 7 dollars. it takes a 9 volt or can be plugged in

I got mine on Amazon...

$18 shipped if you have Amazon prime. Really simple and accurate enough to get the job done. It's not that small though... Which is actually good for Ebay purposes because it can weigh larger/odd shaped packages.
Paypal shipping is the way to go... Even if you wanted to over-estimate the weight a bit without the scale, just to be on the safe side, you're likely still saving due to the free delivery confirmation.

thanks guys, also how do you use paypal shipping to create the labels? I know how to do it by using ebay because you just click a button but not sure how to go directly through paypal to ship a item from here..

This should work to create lables from your PayPal account.
