Hey there again! Just wondering if there is a scale of choice that the gang at boardsort.com would prefer a person to use when weighing and photographing the items to be mailed and sold? Also would it be better to record the weighing and such or is a photo just fine? Thanks again for your consideration and have a great day!

Any (accurate) scale is good. If you're over 10 lbs even a human bathroom scale works

That said if you're looking to BUY a scale accuteck is by FAR the most highly recommended. I've got 3. Two small shipping scales 0.1 ounce -70 lbs at .1 ounce accuracy under 2 lbs and 1 ounce accuracy from 2-70 lbs. and a dock scale at 2 ounce to 400 lbs and a 1 ounce accuracy.
I've used the 1st post scale for 7 years now and still 100% accurate.

And they're built for a beating. I'm far from gentle. The one on my bench hits the floor a few times a week and just keeps on ticking and counting!


There's less expensive ones like scale master and weight mate too, that are almost as good. And half the price.
accuteck comes with a premium but it's been earned
Basically the comparison here is so you want a consumer H-1 hummer or a t1-humvee. Both are great but one is better

Hey man I thank you very much for your response. Looked them up and the Accuteck Shippro looks like it would be nice and at a price point that this other p.o.s. scale I got off of eBay is. Again excellent knowledge and clear to the point answers. So happy that this site is here! Now I think it's finally time to get my first shipment ready for verification. Have a great day and thank you again.
