Have you had any problem with checkout personnel understanding what to do about the tare weight?

The little local organic store where I mostly use these knows exactly what to do with the tare weight. If I use them in other stores, I generally don't worry about it as the weight is fairly minimal. If I'm getting something very expensive, I ask them to use the tare weight, and they sometimes have to find a manager, but I can usually talk them through it :)

My store will not subtract tare weight so am looking for someone who has already bought these so they can tell me the weights of each bag so I can determine whether I want to purchase or not.

You can weigh them yourself and write the tare right on the bag. Magic marker anyone? Washable crayon? Ball point pen? All solutions to your problem.

What I do is weight my package. And that's all you have to do. Now for the tare, weight your item, press the tare, it will zero out and than you can added. Just record the difference. I use it for my fluid intake as well. Say I put 8 ounces in a glass, than only drink about half, so when I put the glass on the scale, it will show you the weight. Press tare, and it will zero out, and than add more fluid, like 4 ounces. Hope this helps.

I've ordered quite a few and have never had this problem. Products such as these are usually weighed before shipping and do settle down somewhat, but if you have a serious question about your container, you might communicate your concern to the seller.

Well, my experience is to be leery of any vendor that can't get their picture right. If there's any doubt in my mind, I have learned to listen to that "Little Voice" that says to lean on the side of caution. There are usually other vendors out there that say what they mean, and mean what they say. You might try contacting the vendor if you can, or use other reviews of that vendor. Wish I could help you more.

The first one I ordered had 3lbs on the box but they state it as heavier so they can charge more on the shipping. Since then they have started removing the weight from the shipping labels so not to get caught out on their scam.

Not only weight is a concern. They don't provide any customer care. The no. they provided doesn't work. They are many worn & tore while shipping. So, think twice before going for it.

I had that problem with one of our first scales. I called service had to eave a message. They called me back several times but we kept missing each other. In the mean time we stopped storing the scale on its side and the scales stopped displaying the error message. I have not had this probelm with the other 11 we have purchased. I hope that helps. If not call service, they are helpful.

Because they are ripping you off. There has to be a mistake. It cant weigh more than a pound.

Haven't tried that, but I would guess it doesn't. The Reading is sensitive to any changes as if you were adding or removing ingredients. But if you use the TARE button, when you remove the box you'll have a negative Reading- that's the box's weight

Dear customer, if you want to weigh something, you should put the item into the tray.

Yes if you put something on it, hit the tare button, weigh something else, and then remove it all. Like if you put a plate on it, zeroed it out and then weighed some food. When you remove the food and plate, it would show a negative.

This is a question for the store. Although it came ok for me, other's may have had a different experience.

Funny I don't see that on mine. .. only shows up if I remove a container after tare has been set. If you are seeing this with nothing on the scale, hit tare and see if it goes away. If not you may have a defective unit.

Yes I believe the problem has been fixed. But if you do have a problem with your shipment, contact them. Amazon, customer service is very very good.
