Default A part from the USA... What courier is cheapest ?

I have a smallish part to import from the USA, piece of intercooler pipe.
What options are there for sending it besides standard US Post airmail. Usual couriers such as UPS etc are expensive..any alternative ?

Cheers

You have 2 options for the USPS! standard airmail and Priority airmail, The latter is half the time and easy to get tracking for both, Depending on the value on the parcel you could incur import costs regardless who ships it.

Alternative option for you. I'm heading out to Florida in September. If you can wait that long I could bring it back for you. PM Me if that is of help. Oh. How big is this item again?

Cheers all and thanks for all the offers and help.

Decided that as the pipe is quite cheap to just go with US post and see what happens this end.

Thanks
