How do you tell if it's made in Mexico - is it clearly marked as such?

I got my Ohaus 10-10 (same as RCBS) on E-Bay for $75.00. That was several years ago, so prices may have gone up.

As mentioned the currently available 10-10's are now Mex made and total crap. Scott Parker just sent out an alert and won't even try to tune them up. Get an old 10-10 made by Lyman off Ebay called a model Lyman M5. They were made by Ohaus and are the best beams made with agate bearings and can deflect single kernels of powder.
Hook it up via a usb camera (aiming at the little needle) to your laptop and it will be easy on your eyes and make loading much more enjoyable and very accurate.
