Comic shipping weight calculator
Pick what you are shipping. The answer is the weight and package size Point and Sell writes in the eBay file for it, worked out by the same code. The last three boxes are the ones on the Settings page: type your own numbers, or leave them blank for the product's starting ones.
What each one gets
At the product's starting settings:
| What you ship | Weight | Package |
|---|---|---|
| A single comic | 0 lb 3 oz | 12 x 8 x 2 in |
| A lot of 10 comics | 1 lb 14 oz | 12 x 8 x 2 in |
| A lot of 25 comics | 4 lb 11 oz | 12 x 8 x 2 in |
| A lot of 26 comics | 4 lb 14 oz | 12 x 8 x 4 in |
| A graded comic (slab) | 1 lb 8 oz | 13 x 10 x 3 in |
| A magazine | 0 lb 3 oz | 12 x 8 x 2 in |
| A paperback book or trade paperback, listed from its ISBN | 0 lb 8 oz | 9 x 6 x 2 in |
| A hardcover book, listed from its ISBN | 1 lb 8 oz | 9 x 6 x 2 in |
- A single comic is weighed as one bagged and boarded comic, 3 oz until you change it in Settings.
- A magazine gets the single comic's weight and package.
- A lot is the number of comics times your ounces per comic, plus what your Settings say the box adds. The box starts at 0 oz, so until you change it the weight is the comics alone. A lot of more than 25 comics gets the bigger package, 12 x 8 x 4 in.
- A graded comic is 1 lb 8 oz in a 13 x 10 x 3 in box, an estimate from a CGC holder's published size plus a graded-comic mailer. The boxes above do not change it.
- A book follows its binding: 0 lb 8 oz for a paperback, 1 lb 8 oz for a hardcover, in a 9 x 6 x 2 in package until you change the book package in Settings. A book with no binding filled in is weighed as a paperback.
- A weight or package you type on a row yourself always wins over all of these.
These are estimates. Weigh a real parcel packed the way you pack, and put your numbers in Settings. This page gives the weight and the box, not a postage price.
