Can anyone in the USA recommend a good, international Courier?

[kasabian]

apart from the obvious DHL, UPS..etc.. They cost too much.



I need to import 50 teapots from the USA to the UK. It's 2 cartons weighing 31lbs each. The company selling them says I gotta sort out my own courier.

Anyone know any reasonably priced companies that do this type of thing?

thanks dudes.

Before 9-11, I used to ship via American Eagle all the time (which is basically an American Airlines flight), however I am sure that things are different now - it's worth a shot to call. I've done large shipments through USF trucking and it worked out well and I think they do international ... if you are not in a huge rush, try putting a post on Craiglist and see if someone traveling is willing to get it into the same continent as you ... it's two small packages and if I were traveling and was able to open the box to inspect the contents (which the airlines can do anyway), I would do it for some extra travel cash! Look into potential duties if you go that route though ... Good luck ...
