When we sent the customer a quote for a quality set of floor scales, he replied back with the statement.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Do you carry any other type, that are less. In other words (brand x) scales are around 500.00 and I told (co-worker) that we could buy almost 3 for the price of 1 and if one breaks down we would have a back up.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Of course our first comment would be, it might be a good idea to buy two or three of them so you have a system that works! Seriously, if you&#8217;ve read any of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.centralcarolinascale.com\/blog\/2009\/08\/14\/floor-scales-101-the-fine-print-or-should-we-say-chinese-print\/\">blog posts<\/a> in the past, then you know our philosophy when it comes to floor scale systems. You can always <a href=\"https:\/\/www.centralcarolinascale.com\/blog\/2007\/03\/15\/quality-versus-price\/\">find a set of scales at a cheaper price<\/a>. Lets face it, in today&#8217;s world doesn&#8217;t that almost apply to just about any product? There is always somebody down the street willing to sell something a little cheaper. And often times if they can import a bunch of junk that has serious QC issues and sell them to unsuspecting customers who are simply looking to get a good deal, then that is what they will do.<\/p>\n<p>That is why we focus on providing you a set of platform scales that we have confidence in.\u00a0 The other note worth mentioning is the scale he was &#8220;comparing&#8221; our scale to wasn&#8217;t even legal for trade. The main point of this entry is, give us a call or send us an email and we can provide you with a quote for a weighing scale that we feel will meet your needs. If you have a budgeted price in mind, be sure to let us know that too. Often times when something costs a lot less than other similar products, there is a reason.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We were recently invited to provide a written quote on a 5&#8217;x5&#8242; floor scale at a metal recycling center in North Carolina.
