Travel baggage scale

[Hoosier]

You might be interested in this scale if you are a frequent air traveler...

I got this AD today in the morning..... It will come in handy....

Otherwise, you can upgrade the member status by accumulating a lot of mileage to avoid any baggage fees. I don't pay any fees upto two checked in baggages.

I picked up this same one at my LDS! Works great and is very handy.

I also use this scale and it has helped many times when I'm heading home and picked up too many souvenirs.

FYI, once you weigh the item, it will lock the weight on the display so you can set your bag down and then read the weight. Great for solo travelers like myself.

pretty cool.

Divers Direct price ($25) is a little high compared to Amazon though. You can pick them up there for $16 and up.

I will say that airlines are getting stricter and stricter with the bag limits and weight limits. They used to not care if it was a few pounds over, but now just 3 to 5 pounds over and it is an issue.

I recently had one bag that was 55 pounds and one that was 45 pounds. They made me take 5 pounds worth of stuff out of the bag and transfer it to the other bag..... (moved some shoes, etc to the other bag outside pocket and damn airline employee thieves stole a brand new pair of Cole Hahns. bastards!!!!)

well $16 is the low price. Take 10% off and you're down to $14.40

a 42% savings of DD's price.

Ok... Finally, I got the reply from DD.

The adjusted price is $15.10 plus $8.23 S/H, equal to $23.33.

Man, it is still more than Amazon due to the higher S/H charge....

I got one off ebay last year, came directly from china. its a different model but its good to 100lbs and can switch from english to metric and locks the weight on the screen until you hit reset.

The really sad part is, that with the airlines being such a pain about weight, that there is enough need for some one to design a product like this. :depressed:
