| Stupid question that maybe someone knows off hand.
How much does one standard bottle(Marquis Philips bottle for example) weigh?
I have to ship 7 but need to get a quote before I can send it. | | | |

| | 3 pounds. Be sure to add an extra 1/2 - 1.0 pound for the box, styrofoam, bubble wrap etc. Most mailing companies will round UP when they charge you the billable rate. | | | |

| I just checked my shipping records, which will include packaging and the weight is rounded up. Three bottles packed showed weights of 10, 11, 11, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 13, 15. Six bottle packed showed weights of 21, 23, 28, 28.
I don't know what a MP bottle looks like, but I would use 4 pounds as an average because I'm sure that is what they will charge you. | | | |

| I just received 2 cases of 'normal' sized 750s today.
Both boxes were labeled at 36 pounds. Sounds like 3 per to me. | | | |

| | I just shipped out (3) 3-packs today. Rounding up, it came out to be 10, 11 and 11. Four pounds is probably too high. | | | |
