The first one shows how to use it: It IS a postal scale, and measures in grams & oz (4 oz total). Clip the item you want to weight where the envelope is, and hold the unit up by the ring pull. The solid circle at the bottom (2nd pix) is the counterweight, and the whole thing is done!. Fast, easy and you can pretty much leave it out in the open, and it doesn't really look like "paraphenalla".

I would keep it in the trunk of the car if you need to transport it, in a small boxx with some blank envelopes, a few stamps, and a pad & pen. That way it can only look like for what it was intended for.

Those are only what I'd call "marginally" accurate. I have used them, and while they get you in the ballpark, they aren't very precise at all.

True, TroubleMaker...but how accurate do you really need to be, unless you're the merchant?

Speaking from my personal profile, you're only going to be buying in set qauntities anyway. 5's (5 grams), 1/4 (>=7gm), 1/2 (>=14gm) or Full Oz.

If you're a regular, and of course you're not insane enough to make your transaction on the street, you'll have more than enough time to make sure its what its suppsoed to be. That little beauty is cool enough. And it has some benifits to it.

1 - If you weight it beforehand, and the purcash is REALLY off, I would go through it right there, and just strip the bigger stems & sticks out and get it to its true weight. If its JUST nugs, You can be sure your getting amount you want. As long as your not off by more than 2 gm, its cool. Of course it depends on your buying habits

2 - You'll cut down on getting the rep of being "easy to burn". I had one connection that intro'd me to another guy that had what I wanted, and I brought from him a few times. Each time I checked it right there in front of him, and when it was off enough, I showed it to him, and got my balence. A few times, It was OVER, and same thing (I think it was a test, but that just how I am, lol) I pointed it out to him, and gave it back.

My honesty paid off for that : He always made sure to give me a little more for the same price, So I wound up getting more for my buck, over the long haul. Damn, I missed getting his crop...one of the few local farmers in Long Island. Now he's retired to NV, I think.

I have one of those. It's accurate to the gram, but not as precise as I want it, so I got a Jennings digital scale. I absolutely LOVE it! I got it off ebay too for only $20.00 with shipping.

It all depends, when you get right down to it. I usually only buy in certain amounts. I think the most I've ever got was about an oz ($100, NY), or an 1/2 oz. So its just a matter of picking the size, throwing it on the scale, and pony up the $$$. I can make it last about 6-7 weeks, at my rate, even thought I almost always smoke with friends.
