What scale do you use to weigh the packages you send? I look on ebay and see tons of postal scales ranging anywhere from $1 to $150. Any recommendations?

Thanks!

I use a 6 lbs kitchen scale, but I ship sets and large items, so a scale is a must.

Target or WalMart is a good bet, but many discount stores (Ross', TJ Maxx, etc) stock them for $20 or less.

Most major POs sell a USPS brand scale for around $35. I think it's 10 lbs max.

i bought a $15 postal scale at walmart. works great especially for my group break shipping.

1 standard card, penny sleeve, top loader, team bag, 1 packing peanut (for DC thickness) and a 4x8 #000 mailer is only 1 ounce.

Joe,

Happy new years bud!

I ship everything at 2 oz, graded at 4 oz. I have NEVER had a problem in about 6,000 auctions sold.
