Well, an unopened 950 pc box (1857) weighes just an ounce or so short of 3
pounds.

But it really depends on what bricks you're talking about.  600 2x6's will
weigh more than 600 1x1's.

I'd say up to three pounds would be a safe bet.  That 950 pc box has lots of
1xN bricks, but there are 950 of them versus 600.

Are you concerned about getting ripped off on shipping or something?  I
can't imagine bothering with making a post about it unless someone is
wanting to charge you $10 to ship it or something.  4 pounds (say 4 with a
good box and packing material) would only run $5.40 for Priority Shipping.
