I think that people can see some value in the scales but not $40 worth. You could offer the vendor $5 and see how they react

A good plan. Go for it Ed.

You can even go as high as $6, as Orville will give you a buck if you can make this stop
The only problem with the plan is that you may then have to spend a month arguing whether these are supposed to be AUD, CAD, or USD

Or XCD, BSD, BBD, BZD, BMD, SGD, KYD, FJD, GYD, HKD, JMD, LRD, NAD, NZD, SBD, SRD, TWD, TTD.
Though using SRD would have a certain comedy element I think I would make my offer in GYD

Well, the three I quoted were because the seller is in US, you're in AU and Orville is in CA.
If you feel really generous you can do the opposite of 'splitting the change' abandon all of this colonial money and do it in GBP... Three guineas and a sixpence would probably do it
