If I were to go to calculated shipping – domestic only – and a buyer were to purchase 2 or more items, will the weight total up and then calculate shipping from that new weight?

That is what will happen. If you have entered the weight of the individual items into the listing, then the calculator should total the items and get a total weight for the buyer’s order. To allow for the packaging materials, you may need to add the weight of the materials (padded envelopes, boxes, etc.) to the weight of the item so that the weight in the listing reflects the packaging materials.
I wouldn’t worry about being too exact, since anything over 13 ounces is usually going to be shipped via Priority Mail, UPS, or FedEX and they all round up to the next pound anyway.

Remember these tips:
- Use links to other sources to support your opinions
- Use examples where possible
- Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?
Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
