Is there a discount for a big set or are prices all the same?
wouldn't the price be set more by the class of weight rather than the number of weights?
My company charges $25 per weight pretty much as long as we can calibrate them. We generally do F class we do not get into the more accurate weights. I was just wondering what other companies charge.
Cool! What's the address? I have five 1000 pounds weights that are coming due and $25 bucks a weight sounds like a lot less than what I have been paying.
I sent you a private message geek.
We do the lower accuracy weights (F,4, etc) and charge around $19.50 per weight, but larger weights like yard weights 1000+ lbs $97.50 per weight
When I worked for Goodrich in Phoenix, I discovered that the Arizona State weights & measures folks were much more affordable than most other places. I can't exactly recall now, but I know they cost less for a set of weights than what it would have cost for shipping. Including all the lovely data.
Might want to check into that. Surprised the heck out of me.
it's hard to believe there is any money to be made at 20 dollars per weight. just verifying serial numbers, data, sticker...
Jimmy I agree and depending on what method your company uses I think there would be borderline losing money. Unless you literally are just putting the weight on a scale and giving the customer the data.
by the time you pay the bills and employees that 20 dollars is gone with no profit. May as well just drive to their facility, roll the window down and throw the stickers out the window.
CPRULES I get that point but sometimes as a full service cal lab you lose a little money to keep a customer. Some items just are not very profitable. Some customers want all their items calibrated by the same lab so you take a loss to keep the bigger chunk of business.
We do that sometimes. Depends on the customer and how much other stuff we cal for that customer, and how much we lose calibrating some of those no profit items (like Grade 3 Gauge Blocks as an example).
A MASSIVE AMOUNT...
Sorry.. Just had to say it..
A heavy price... would have sounded better
