Does anybody actually know for a fact?

I don't have the exact answer but I know it is heavier than an 1850 single rail o/d box which I was surprised to discover (considering it is an easy lift) weighs 42kg.
Why don't you do what I did, which was borrow a set of bathroom scales and measure it yourself?

I would get the scales if I were you - I guesstimated the weight of 4 wheels and tyres and based a postage price on that on ebay - Unfortunately I was a bit out (not by much), but a few kilos tipped them into a new postage bracket which ended up costing me considerably more than I expected (thus eating into my profit margin)
