I'm putting my 12" PB up on e-bay soon, and was wondering what to do about shipping. I am new to selling on e-bay so I could use some help. I am shipping in the original box with everything included. I figure its easiest to let people calculate by zip code so they get the best deal. So does anyone know how much the PB and all weighs so I can put that in and calculate shipping? Or any other ideas or hints to shipping/selling i should know, thanks!

I would just charge the buyer $25 to have it insured and shipped anywhere in the US by FedEx Ground. FedEx will charge you probably $15 or so, and just use the rest to cover part of the PayPal/eBay fees. :)

Is $25 reasonable? I saw others that charged as much as $50 which seemed pretty high for a laptop. I can understand a large desktop needing $50 for shipping. But a flat rate of $25 with insurance included seems reasonable to me. Any other input?
