Need help with weight of 3 computer components and tips for "external shipper"

Hi, I'm planning to buy a combo on Newegg existing off: 
Asrock Extreme4 Z370 - Motherboard
i5 8600k - CPU
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3000MHZ - Ram/Memory
Link to the Newegg combo: https://goo.gl/i2G6E8

I am from Sweden and I am gonna ship this using an external shipping site to ship it to me for a better price.
To make that happen on some websites I need all the dimensions of Height, Length, Depth and Weight and some only require weight.
Is there someway I can measure the weight of the items. I don't know if the items will be shipped separate boxes or all in one. It might be different for this one specifically since it's a combo.

 It's probably hard to measure the exact weight of the item and there's no way to know the weight of the shipping box as well.

What I'm looking for is people that have any knowledge about:

  • The weight of i5 8600k (not the actual processor) either the weight of the box with the CPU and even better if including the shipping box and even better then that if it's a Newegg shipping box.

    The weight of the Asrock Extreme4 Z370, either the weight of the motherboard and even better if it is with the motherboard box and even better than that if it is including the shipping box and even better then that if it's a Newegg shipping box. (Sorry for writing in a mess).

    Like the previous one but this time with the Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB, So the weight of them even better if it's with the box, even better then that if it's including the shipping box and once again even better if it's a Newegg shipping box

    If a Newegg combo comes with 1 single box or separate.
    Someone that has purchased maybe this exact combo or something similar on Newegg or other, and of course one of the items (if someone has them).

I would also be really happy if someone could recommend a good and importantly cheapest way to ship it from the US to me in Sweden.
Happily recommend sites to use for this external shipping and one's not to use.
Some I am currently looking at is: https://www.myus.com/ https://www.shipito.com/  www.borderlinx.com

I also have 2 uncles in the US that can help with this and ship it to me, but it is only relevant if it's cheaper.

I know this is a lot of question but it will really help me
Thank you in advance.

why not get something from a swedish website or european website? saves the hassle of customs etc.

Because it's way cheaper if I buy it from the US. I save almost 160$ on it.

It's really not a great moment to buy anything PC related, GPU in particular, in Europe...

.. but be careful with these unless your final shipment is gonna be classified as "gift" or if it won't specify the real value of the goods.
