What is a good Postal Scale to use ??

GrimReaper

When mailing coins and currency ?? Do you have to buy a membership/subscription to the scale maker ??

I just use a kitchen scale and do a calculate postage on the PO website. Works everytime.

Same here. I got this one before it was co-branded with Biggest Loser. It weighs up to 6.6 pounds in 0.1 oz increments (3 kg in 1 gram increments for metric). Works well in the kitchen, too. Lots of other choices under $20.

That is the same one I mentioned above. In fact it might be the same seller as when I got mine.

I picked up a postal scale at Staples which measures to the ounce and upto 11 pounds. It was less than $50 and works great.

Measuring anything less than an ounce is kind of a waste for a Postal Scale since postage is based upon a 1 ounce minimum.
However, I suppose you could have a dual purpose scale but then I'd question the gram accuracy of a scale with such a broad range.
