If selling a product by weight, a Weights and Measures License is required. Inspection and calibration of scales fee: depends on capacity of scale. If business includes the selling, servicing, or repair of certified scales then a license is required. License fee is $250 for a 5-year license.

Inspectors take random samples of packages in stores, warehouses and manufacturing plants and count, weigh or measure the contents to see if the labeled quantity is accurate.
The Measurement Standards Section also tests scanner pricing accuracy at retail locations throughout the state, with verification at the checkout stand of posted prices on signs, shelf tags and advertisements.
Nice post!!!

I worked in a chemistry lab for a few years, and feel like I know my way around a scale. Someone needs to offer these shops a one hour class or something!

Delta 9 is guilty of this ignorance too; it may not be one of their current employees.... but it just seems they should be supportive of the dissemination of functional information irregardless. :smokin:

I'd say an easy majority of shops are not aware of the grams they lose when someone sells them a 112 g qp.
