well i just got my scale which came quickly, which was nice but it doesnt work hehe. Now im not sure if its broken or if the batteries are wrong. The battery spots say one + and one - but both batteries have the + symbol on them. It looks like a nice scale but i cant be sure. Hopefully i get some money to go buy some new batteries to see if its that or if its a broken scale.

heres some pictures.

Hey hows the scale working? Don't mean to bump an older thread but curious how the 10 dollar scale works. Any complaints or problems with it that you've seen so far?

They both have + on them, that was funny or was you being serious. If so that was a serious stoner moment.

the scale is as simplistic as it gets. It works real well, I think I've had it for almost two years now. Gone through about 4 sets of batteries lol.
