My sales haven't been bad this month. But for some reason I always lose on the shipping so when you figure it out if it is 1st class or 1st Priority rate it is okay to list but otherwise I am starting to list the weight + add a pound for packaging and then I say. S/H to be determined at end of auction bu zip code. My Zip Code is listed under location on the description page. Please wait for my email. If you are selling in lots say you will combine shipping but they must wait to find out what the shipping will be until the end of auction.

I do what Libra does, and I've added a clickable link now, thanks to some great people here, so that if it's more than a pound, they can click to the P.O. site and fill in my zip to their zip, with the number of pounds I gave them, and know right away what it'll cost.
Usually adding 3/4 to 1 pound is a good estimate, although I've found that if I'm shipping a breakable flat item, like a plate, the box has to be so much larger that it's more like 1.5 pounds before I'm through with all the packing. Live and learn.
