I have an old 32 oz spring scale for food that the wife has had for years. Don't use it any more for food but use it for weighing small packages. I calibrated/verified it by weighing a few boxed items on it, taking them to the PO, and having them confirm the weight readings I got. In my case they were almost dead on and haven't had any issues with wrong weights.
I've found that going to your local PO as a 'regular' and working with the same people there can really help when you DO have a problem.
