My advice is re-read the spiel in 6 months and see if you still feel that oppressed.
No one should be "given a 1 pound buffer on weigh-in if transiting home from intl. travel."
1. I didn't buy anything from Las Ramblas. Far too kitchsy.
2. No, it didn't kill the vibe, but it made for a nice headache on the way home.
3. I'm not oppressed, nor did I claim to be. What frustrated me was the agent being a hard-nose over a magic pound that her scale had, then after my scale said I had reduced the bags by more than 1, her scale reads exactly what my scale read in the first place.
4. Well, if we can't go out and buy travel scales that meet the same accuracy standards as the airport scales, then a small margin of error isn't too much to ask for.
