What is the actual weight of this item? 7.7 ounces does not seem right. Thanks to all that replied, I decided to go with another type of card.

I just put mine on a postage scale: 15.0 oz. Maybe you are looking at the shipping weight. Is has some heft because there is a battery in it that seems to last forever.

The 178 cards weigh three-fourths of a pound. If you separate out the Chinese Mahjong cards from American it is probably one half a pound. My travel is usually road trips where weight is not an issue. However I don't know about plan travel.

I own this handy-dandy gadget. I thought, too, it would be heavy, but it really isn't. It weighs as much as two or three decks of Bicycle playing cards (for a crazy comparison!). Good luck!

Yeah, I concur with Ivan, mine is still in the package -but, the whole unit (including some minimal cardboard packaging) weighs in at 8.3oz.

Hello,I've been very happy with my Digital Postal scale. The technical specs say that capacity is 0.1 oz --> 3 lbs. And the weight increments are .05 oz. So if I put a single index card on the machine, it shows a weight of 00.10. When I put an empty envelope on it, it shows .20. So it does weigh very light items. It seems to be very comparable to the US postal scale, too. I use the scale often and it has performed well for me. Hope this helps. :)

I would guess it weighs 8 oz. at most. If I had a postal scale I could say exactly, but it's weight is negligible.

I can tell you it's not 8 ounces, I am not sure of its weight but 8lbs sounds correct. I love it is limited if you use it for bags from the store but it keeps things from sliding all around.. I am thinking about getting a 2nd one...

It says the shipping weight is 7.3 ounces. I will say that it is extremely light weight and if I needed it I would have kept it because it worked flawlessly.

Suze, sorry but it doesn't say on the box. You might check the avery.com site for a specific weight. I find the cards to be a nice not-too-heavy but not-too-light card stock. I order the matte finish. The envelopes are nice as well.

Mine weighs 5.5 ounces or 156 grams. I think the previous responder either read his scale wrong or had a different battery. I used a postal scale which has been very accurate.

Looks are deceiving ! The weight is 12 OZ with container it weighs 12.4 OZ, also if your into this it is 340g. Hope this clears this up for you.

That must be a misprint. The container is similar in size to a round breath mint container. I would think much closer to 10 ounces rather than pounds.

The 100 lb weight was too thick- I got only a partial punch-through even when I leaned on the punch. The lower weight card stock works very well for me (the weight you get in scrapbook paper kits). Very thin paper (like printer paper) scrunches up, but with care you can punch it and carefully ease it out. Hope this helps.

i just sent email to seller asking if i would really be expected to pay 15.00 to ship 3 of these cards. Will see if I get answer. Either way I will not pay that much to ship something that weighs so little.

I didn't weigh mine, but it consists of aluminum alloy, which is a very light metal. It's possible that it's only 4 ounces, but that does seem too light. I don't think amazon's weight estimates mean much.

Actually, it is really too heavy for greeting cards. I use it for tent cards for the table for holidays, etc. I much prefer a lighter weight for greeting cards. I like 67lb. for greeting cards. The 110lb. is good for cover stock.
