I can give you a chance to double your money... :)
That requires Black VAMagic... o_O
Yes, but it involves voodoo... :)

I was thinking of putting it in the Ancients forum, but not sure they would appreciate the humor...I ruled out the Bullion forum...
Yup, use 100 g instead of 50 g. BTW taring is setting the scale to 0 with a container on it.
Sorry to hear that.

BTW, what is your calibration weight you use and did it come with the scale?
Separate names with a comma.
