I need some help with shipping pricing

I'm concerned about international shipping being so expensive now for a flat rate- it's around $20+ now. Is it cheaper to ship things at a flat rate or to weigh the item?
How do you weigh the item and get the shipping price?

Thank you.

Re: I need some help with shipping pricing

Invest in a postage scale, you can pick them up at the post office, target, walmart, etc. If you are shipping heavy items, like I do, I use a regular floor scale (bathroom scale) and get an approximate weight in lbs.

From what some other team members have said, the USPS current prices for international shipping are now in line with most other countries. Your international buyers will not likely be deterred by the new higher shipping prices. Though it doesn't hurt to check on pricing.
