RE: Finding an item that weights roughly the same? 02-27-2019, 02:16 PM

I ordered a GPU.
The Amazon 'item weight' said 658g
The Amazon 'shipping weight' said 839g
It arrived. I weighed the GPU my self, in it's retail box and the result was 855g.

I'm very confused now as the 855g is 200g more than the 'item weight' that I was told to focus on. Instead, it is more like the shipping weight rather than the item weight. Is it possible that in the UK, the shipping weight is the weight of the item they're sending you, irregardless of the packaging?
