    Where to buy body fat calipers

    I know you can get them online. I'd much rather try to find them in a store - because i'm impatient for one, and i'd like to track this over the next few weeks until I go on vacation and don't want to wait because I leave in 3.5 weeks. Over the last few weeks i've lost appoximately 5 lbs (maybe more like 4.2). However, i've been lifting pretty heavy in addition to my cadio.. i'd really like to make sure i'm not losing any muscle. SO yes, while I know you can get them ALL OVER online.. does anyone know of any stores that carry them?

    Are the digital body fat calculators accurate? If not, about how much are they off?

    I'm thinking about buying the digital one, this one: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/om/body.html Or I am thinking about this one: http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/acc/fattrack.html

    I HAD a pair from GNC but returned them. For one, they're 20 bucks. 2, they're just a cheap plastic trinket. Thirdly, I didn't think they were that accurate. The directions tell you to take only a single measurement, and that's it. A little above your hip bone, nowhere else. Seemed to me that something more thorough would be the right way, no? I have been thinking about the elctro scales as well but I don't know how effective they are.

    If you're looking for calipers solely, ebay has a bunch on there for less than 10 bucks shipped most of the time.

    For what it's worth,

    Thanks. I've been thinking about those scales too, but from what i've read here, no one seems to think they are very accurate or consistant, which sucks because i almost bought one. I do like the fact that it tracks everything for you though and stores it and your progress. I'll check ebay out anyways.
