and then you will know exactly what your package weighs then go to USPS site and put in the weight and zip code and Waaaaa Laaaaa,,,,You will know how much it takes to ship your package. I bought one of these scales for my work and I got one for home. I wasted a lot of money on extra postage because I never knew how much it really took. Hope this helps. Have a great day, Mark
