how do you figure out shipping prices?

How do you do it?
I've never had to ship anything anywhere. now I've got a fellow in San Diego asking me if I'd make him some bazubands. He agreed to my price and to pay shipping, but understandably wants an estimate for the shipping. How do i go about geting that for him?

I use flat rate boxes from USPS. Most of the time it's less expensive anyways to ship with them.

the FedEx and I beleive UPS websites also have shipping calculators.

you need to know the size of the box, the weight, and to and from zip codes.
