If I could make a suggestion....those of you who are experienced sellers and buyers, could help the "newbie" by asking the right questions helping him to get you your answers. He could just weigh the item, then give the demensions of the shipping box and his zip code to you....then you experienced Listians could go to usps.com and get your own information. making rude comments does not help them learn. If you don't have patience to help them, then don't bid and let teh rest of us who don't mind helping people get the rewards.....just a thought!
