(...) So an eBay lot of 10 pounds should yield about 3,300 pieces. I acquired a 300 pound lot and it came in very near 100,000 pieces (I didn't actually count them, but the bulk was there). Wayne (new address - eskimo2@worldnet.att.net) (24 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.shipping)

Has someone come up with a general formula that estimates weight based on piece count?
