Says he sold over 60, surely he not fooked up that many times?  I saw some 400lb digital one for like $43, but they want 20 to ship it, probably ea.  Spec need a scale so he can ship out those goodies. ;D

There is something going on but bottom line is that the price is very attractive. I'm guessing it is a factory closeout,soon to be discontinued model change or whatever item. I don't really care,price is right.

Well the first 4 just showed up. Very sturdy construction.  Very happy with them. I stood centered,off center and on each corner. All weights came up within 1 pound. I was concerned about the ability to handle accurate weighing if the scale was not perfectly centered under the tire. Shouldn't be any problem at all.

Keep on a hard floor for best result.  Just let the wife stand on it, she'll tell you if #$$% thing is accurate. LMAO

Still think it was a good buy, and definitly think four scales is better than 1 and swapping it around.  Should be able to put the display up on tire and read it with you in seats.  And you can always use to sell nails by the pound M-F at work. ;D

It is important with ANY scales used to have them all at same height.

Talk about timing....... These came up for sale on another board yesterday for 50$ Of course I had to buy them....
 

 
They are 4-1 ratio so each corner will do 1200#'s. I checked one by standing on the scale itself then with the pad and they're pretty damn accurate.

Yup I saw those also. Great find.I just don't need 4:1.  I plan on doing a 2:1 ratio for the rear like that with the scales I bought. Just remember that positioning is very important with that type of setup.
