    Thumbs down Shorted on down?!?!

    I started a down under quilt last night. Have been stuffing today and found that my 3 oz bags of down only had 2.5 to 2.7 oz in them. I'm pretty sure my scales are accurate. I using Ohaus triple beams, good to 1/10 of a gram. Has anyone else experienced this?

    Why don't you email the people you bought the down from? Hopefully you'll be able to work something out - down's pretty expensive to be shorted on.

    Did that. Don't figure I'll hear back until Monday. This is the first time I've ordered down, wondering if that was typical.

    Couldn't say - I didn't measure it when I got mine...just stuffed it in.
