    Ive always wanted to weigh my bud but idk a scale seemed like a waste, but now ive been buying more and more bud (Not more nd more but like a eigth every 2 weeks)

    And i found a digital scale online for $6, from china idk if i should trust it

    But i dont know if imma be smoking all my life or just for now, so is a scale worth it?

    A scale is one of those things where it's nice to have, but you don't really need one unless your selling. I got my scale for free and use it to see how much I got when I pick up. If you have an extra 20 laying around, go ahead and buy one. It's nice to have but I only use it once a month at most. :smoke:

    As long as you buy weed you must buy a scale.

    End thread.

    Yeah they are pretty cheap and probably worth it because they provide you with peace of mind. It's nice to know you aren't being ripped off.

    Those cheap digital scales work just fine. The only situation where you do not need a scale is if you buy from a trusted dealer who weighs out in front of you. And even then, just buy a cheap scale if you deal with weed.

    i just probably got the same scale u are talking about for 6$, it came in a nice discreet package that said "Computer Components" and it works great. but i do have to admit i dont use it as often as i thought i would, only when someone tells me what they weighed the bag out too and i usually see if they are lieing or not (really tells alot about a dealer), but usally i can "eye ball" it and see if its worth the money im paying

    Look around to see if you can find one with .01 readings. Don't carry it around with bud, leave it at home away from your stash. Weigh your shit out when you get back from picking it up and if it's pretty short (More then .2g) then talk to your dealers and just say something like "Hey man, they last sack was a little light"
    If he does it again, drop them :smoke:

    QFT, also artic has a good signature. I would quote that, but I don't think I can.

    Gotta get a scale. I went the more expensive route and got a nice one from the LHS for $25, but the cheaper ones will do you fine.

    Not only can you use it to weigh your pickups, but I also love being able to weigh how much I have on hand, how much I smoke, etc., and it even has other household uses besides weed I wouldn't of normally thought of using one for.

    You know what they say, great minds think alike ;)
    Hmm is it a good one? worth the $6?

    it really doesn't matter if it is from China. half the stuff in the states is made here. just depends on the company since some have better quality control and what not:p
     
  18. #18 Dogma264, Mar 1, 2011
    yeah but the brand is Digital Scale-500
    Idk but i dont think ive heard of that brand before
     
  19. #19 GimlaxX, Mar 1, 2011
    it is actually a good scale. my friend had bought one of them too and sold it to his other friend for 20$, who thought it was a rather pricey scale. he ripped him off, but you gotta make money somehow
