Go for local postal service that will pass off to USPS, That's the cheapest it will get. Checkout international flat rate boxes. If it doesn't fit, you have to go parcel post. I had to send ~7lbs in caps for ~65USD.

You're right believe it or not. You have to send your stuff by the Royal Mail parcel service and it gets handed over to USPS when it reaches the USA. That's probably the cheapest service you'll get.

You may have a choice of air or surface mail. Surface is cheaper but takes forever.

I use Link2 in the UK

Gives me competitive quotes and they're reliable - they are cheaper as they buy capacity in bulk from the carriers...
