I am finally happy with "My Scales 6001." They sent me a new platform for my
scale, plus the vibrakiller pad that was missing in my shipment.

They had answered in an email that if I shipped back the scale and they
didn't deem it damaged, I would have to pay a re-stocking fee -- or
something like that. That certainly was a determent to sending it back.
But I took a picture of the damage and emailed it to them and was promptly
and agreeably mailed a platform replacement, plus the vibrakiller pad.

Wonders of email and digital cameras and scanners! Just had to
Shaaaaaaaaare!
