shipping from america

[Panky123]

I am looking into importing some stuff from america, i was wondering if anyone knew of any shipping companies that can ship cheaply to the uk? i got my last package using UPS weighed in at 6lbs and cost me $90 which seems really expensive to me.
I'm guessing UPS use air freight, i was wondering if maybe sea freight would be cheaper?

USPS are probably cheapest at low weight, you will likely get royal mail delivering including their £8? admin charge for taxes as well as taxes.

Sea freight will only really be viable if your shipments are minimum or around a pallet worth (2 m3)
