It has almost become comical when we stop and take a few moments to look around the internet at all the different floor scales that are available<\/a>.\u00a0Sometimes, it is even funnier when we notice all the floor scale “experts” positioned throughout the internet that are selling the floor scales.\u00a0It’s really unbelievable.\u00a0 It’s\u00a0as if\u00a0floor scales are posted\u00a0on websites like burgers are\u00a0listed on\u00a0restaurant menus.\u00a0 However, as\u00a0some of you know, not every burger is the same.\u00a0 Same\u00a0holds true for floor scales.\u00a0 Quality matters.<\/p>\n

You see, we’ve been working on and selling floor scales going on thirty years.\u00a0 Many of our suppliers have been selling them for longer than that.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0That’s why we\u00a0just shake our head when we continue to have folks\u00a0ask us to try and “match” or beat the price of some of these imported scales<\/a> that have only existed for a few months.\u00a0 Fact is, we can’t beat the prices for these scales<\/a> and there\u00a0are some good reasons we can’t.<\/p>\n

Sure, we could go out and import our own floor scales by the container and then dump them on the market like others have.\u00a0\u00a0However, many of these “import beauties” are built with no drawings.\u00a0 Many others are built in subpar factories overseas.\u00a0 Finally, many others are built with subpar steel or shall we say pieces upon pieces\u00a0of steel.<\/p>\n

All this is done to cut costs and create the ultimate low cost floor scale.\u00a0 The loser in all this is ultimately the end user because he\/she buys a floor scale with less durability<\/a> and a shorter\u00a0lifespan.\u00a0 However, the American Scale manufacturer\u00a0also loses\u00a0marketshare as a result and the individual scale dealer loses potential sales.<\/p>\n
