Best Calipers for less than $50?


Recommended Posts

Wondering if you guys have any suggestions for Calipers below the $50 mark?

My boss has a Mitutoyo 500-506-10 and his pride and joy B&S 599-570-36-3, which he lets a total of 0 people even look at lol.

I don't dare borrow either one at home, and I don't need the accuracy/consistency they provide, I just need something "good enough" for cheap. I just need something that you have found to work, or can vouch for at least somewhat.

Never used any brands besides Mitutoyo and Brown/Sharpe so all these other low level brands are unknown to me, so any suggestions are cool. I see lots of reviews on Amazon on a few particular models. (Best reviews seem to be on the truepower)

Was looking at a Titan, http://www.amazon.com/Titan-23175-Electronic-Digital-Caliper/dp/B000B8XYV8/ref=sr_1_6?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1383634930&sr=1-6&keywords=mitutoyo

Fucking love Alan you goddamned fucking super nerd lol

When Alan uses big words I don't understand

It's warming up enough that the donut-punching cyclist douchenozzles are getting their two wheeled fagmobiles out.

Everytime I see a guy driving a mini cooper I cant help but think he loves cock & (2/29/16)-My wife just bitched at me about throwing out things we don't really use. My response of well we don't really use your vagina so should we throw that out was evidently not the right response. I had to leave the room.

I missed Alan.

RIP 5/29/15 - I love you son.

I would get a pair of mitutoyo's. I use them at work they are the best of the 4 brands we use.

......sigh...........................................can you get me a pair mitutoyos for less than $50?

Like I said, I use and have experience with high level manufacturer calipers, I'm looking for some cheaper low-end ones.

You think used is reliable? Especially since it will probably be shipped via UPS, FedEx, or USPS, who are not exactly known for their package preservation lol?

Shipping is still $11.50 so I'll offer 41 at most. I'll do it tomorrow to try and keep the price down
