Well "drug dealer" scales are what you need but if you dont want to buy your own go to a proshop and im sure they will let you use their scale to weigh your arrows, but if you want your own i think that they run about $60, maybe cheaper im not real sure because i dont weigh my arrows.
What's wrong with going to the manufacturer's site, finding what the arrows weigh(gr.per inch) than adding the weight of your tips? You should be close enough.

Because then you aren't accounting for insert, nock, glue, fletchings and intolerances. You don't have to weigh your arrows, however the weight of the shaft + head will be way off. Usually fletchings, glue, nocks, and inserts will weigh around 50 grains together.
drug dealer scales weigh in grams, not grains. get a grain scale.

And how do we know this. He is right. I think I gave about 100 bucks for mine. P.S. I wouldn't buy one that runs on 9 volt batteries. They go dead fast, and always when you need them.

I just took the grains per inch, and times that by how long my arrows are, added in point weight, nock weight, bushing weight, wrap weight, and my three vanes weight. And I came up with 509 grains!
Personally, I get on the scale and weight myself. Then, I get an arrow and hold it in my hand and reweight myself. I subtract. Then convert the differnce into grains. I know it is a little more complicated but what the heck.
