Shipping and handling rates (and associated shipping discounts for multiple purchases) are as follows, based on destination:

USA  - $5.00 1st LP + $1.00 each additional LP  (Media Mail)

Canada  - $17.00 1st LP + $5.00 each additional LP  (Airmail/First Class International)

Domestic/USA Customers - The normal/default shipping method is 'Media Mail' via the US Postal Service, since that's the method I've found most people choose.  It is a little slower than Priority Mail, but cheaper and very reliable.  The Post Office says delivery time is 3-9 days, though it's usually to you in less than a week.
