    I think I get what you're saying, but I can't envision myself asking the yard to basically give me free weight. Regardless of whether or not they are "stealing" my 0.2 lb or what have you.
    I'm a very if I don't agree, I don't do sort of person, and I see the yard giving me any kind of bonus to weight as a gift, whether it be adding ghost weight, removing tare, rounding cash change to the nearest .05 or any of the sort...People don't normally ask for gifts.

    That's what keeps me coming back. Those types of yards actually want their customers coming back without feeling screwed over.



    I kind of see this as sort of like seeing a bum on the street with a sign asking for money. I could very well be seeing something totally different than what you're trying to portray, but that's what I see.

    I think you see what I am saying now. An I see it as a fair trade off. They get alot of free weight all the time because there scales don't go down below the 1pound mark. But every one has there own way of looking at it.
