Answer 1

Contact your local post office for details about shipping and handling.

Answer 2

Get the item packaged, and take it to USPS or whichever shipping company is convenient, where they will weigh it and give you a shipping estimate.  Check the USPS website, you can also get an estimate online if you know the approximate weight and dimensions of your parcel.  Once you have a high bidder, ebay will email you after the auction, and you will be given the buyer's address.  The forms of payment are entirely up to you, the seller, but I prefer payment from paypal, because it's instant payment, but I never ever send anything until I have the buyer's payment.  Message me if you need additional information.
