I used to have a Gem 7 scale but I lost the weighs and some other parts...

now I'll have to buy a new scale when getting a lot of powders.

Adam recommended the My Weigh 200-z. That's $26 at Bulk Nutrition so I could get save in shipping costs.

edit: I guess I'll just buy the damn thing.

Is not... unless they charge less than $2 for overseas shipping (I forgot to mention that).

Let's try to keep the viral marketing to a minimum, please. If you intend to post here to promote sales of any product or service, please do so where it is acceptable:

I am now going to ask a Navigator to move this topic to the appropriate forum.

Thank you.

Ok, fine by me. I'm a bit confused though that you gave me a link to a sales page and then when I seemingly insisted that your competitor is cheaper, you think I have crossed the line...

[doug123]

I'm a bit confused too. How exactly is a scale relevant to the forum name "nootropics and brain enhancers?" I usually assume individuals posting in this forum like to discuss nootropics, not scales -- thus making your post appear off topic; at the very least, if not spammish.

There is an Off-Topic Lounge.

I suppose your post about scales could be moved there as well; but still would appear to be at least mildly viral.

Would it ease your confusion at all if I told you I chose this particular posting section because "Nootropic Supplier section" also didn't feel like the right one and I thought that as the parent forum it might serve as a rightful receptacle of my message.

I don't see an "off-topic lounge" for nootropic related discussion...? Common sense tells me that I am less likely to get a knowledgeable answer where you pointed me to.

Oh, but what are humans other than meme spreaders... and I don't think you are going to ban all discussion because of that... I don't want to seem argumentative, but in the nootropic supplier discussion there are references to the products of your company. WHy not direct me there, then, so I can promote Bulk Nutrition?

[doug123]

This forum is discuss nootropics, not where you choose buy them from. And it's definitely not about scales... If you want to promote a particular supplier, then do so where it is appropriate -- and relevant. We don't want spam here. Compare your post with the rest of those in this forum.

Thank you.

Sure - now you may realize too that this thing may not be as entirely obvious to everyone as it is to you.

[doug123]

You can buy the same scale from a lot of different vendors. I don't sell scales myself. I should look into though.

My-weigh 200Z Pocket Scale

My-weigh 300Z Pocket scale

My-weigh 300Z Pocket Scale

(this one actually looks the coolest):
$22.99


Just try googling "My-weigh 300Z"

But I still don't see the relevance to "Nootropics and Brain Enhancers." If you do, all the power to you.

That's a biggie : )

I don't see any problem in talking about scales. We need them to measure amounts if we are capping and for other reasons.

I've owned the 300z Silver style from rightonscales.com for about a year now, and i can tell you my experience with it is for the price its top notch.

I remember back 10 years ago when a scale like that was $150.00 so when i was looking last year for one i was VERY pleased to see the price drop.
