A ton of rocks and a ton of feathers have precisely the same weight. Since their
weights are the same, neither of them weighs more, and for the same reason,
neither of them weighs less. If each of them were in a sealed carton, nothing
you could do with a scale would tell you which carton holds which item, because
a scale measures only weight and, as stated in the question and as we have
already mentioned, each of these particular two items has the same weight.

What weights more ton of feathers or a ton of concrete?
In normal conditions (in Earth's atmosphere, at the same elevation) a ton of apples weighs more than a ton of feathers, because the density of an apple is greater than density of a feather (feathers are mostly hollow inside). Therefore, the Earth's atmosphere has a greater "floating" effect on the feathers, making them weigh less than apples. People who give "both weigh the same" answer ignore the fact that a ton (1000 kg) is the measure of mass, not weight. Let me ask: what weighs more, a ton of rocks or a ton of helium-filled balloons? Guess! ;) Consider also that if you weigh the two commodities in a vacuum then there is no buoyancy factor.
