Let me guess your age, birth month, or your weight

Many people go and visit their State Fair this time of year.  I’m no exception.  What a fun way to spend a day.  When you do go and visit, you probably will notice the many displays set up who will guess your weight, your birth month or your age.  Seems like they are located on every corner.  They guess wrong and you win a prize.  What scale do they normally have beside them?

Usually, it is an old mechanical dial scale.  These days, not too many of those old mechanical dial scales are available.  However, we do have these portable digital platform scales which are similar.

Price versus quality

I had to write this entry based on the last couple of weeks.  We here at CCS always try to stay on top of the newest trends…especially when it comes to scales.  So I had a new lower priced import scale shipped in here so we could evaluate it.

Every distributor in all kinds of industries attempt to come up with lower priced Continue reading

Quality versus Price

Sometimes ideas about what to write on this blog just fall right into my lap. I just got off the phone with a potential customer who was asking for a price on a scale system.

You make the call — throw away or A REAL FISHING SCALE

“I’m looking for an inexpensive fishing scale for my club” I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard this! Without a doubt, we at Central Carolina Scale have the BEST digital fishing scales on the market! No, they are not cheap. Yes, some clubs run and hide when they hear the price! Like we say on our site…YOU MAKE THE CALL — keep buying throw away office scales every year or STEP UP and buy a FISHING TOURNAMENT SCALE!

The Tournament Series is a washdown safe, stainless steel scale with large weigh platform. Best of all, the weight LOCKS in on the display! The Doran Classic Series also features the weight LOCK. Both of these are OUTSTANDING choices. Both are NTEP legal for trade and both have internal rechargeable battery available. Large remote displays are also available to allow the audience a great view of the weigh in.

One note to think about…each state’s laws vary but it’s probably a really good idea to have your tournament scale certified by your department of weights and measures to ensure you’re using a certified NTEP legal for trade scale system at any fishing tournament where money is used as an award. Fortunately, both of these scales are easily certified since they’re NTEP approved.
