Approximate weight:5-6 lb.  Estimate shipping box size an additional 2 inches  20 X 26 X 6 to account for bubbe wrap.  My zip code is 20120.  If you go to www.usps.com you can select calculate shipping and get a cost estimate.  Canadian bidders, note that shipping is not by Canadina postal code, but just based on Canada.

Terms of Sale.  I prefer paypal and require it for all International bidders.  I will accept money orders and cashiers checks from US buyers. Buyer is responsible for shipping costs and insurance.  I do not charge for packing materials.  Shipping insurance is highly recommended and is based on $1.65 per $50 value of item so must be estimated.

Shipping:  Postage costs are estimated.  I do refund when the shipping estimate is more than the actual. Postage costs for domestic US priority mail have increased and are now based on box size and zip code more than weight.  Shipping international is still based on weight rather than box size.  Please so not bid on large sized items if you are overly concerned about shipping costs.  In many cases I paid more for the shipping from the UK than for the item and this is starting to be the case in the US. 

I combine shipping for store and auction items purchased within a week of each other.  I try to box and weigh items within two days of purchase.  Most items will be colleced by USPS carrier pickup so will actually ship the day after pickup.
