Just this past Saturday I sent an amp to a guy in Edmonton from Kansas via FedEx ground (4-10 days). It's a US Acoustics 4085. Not a giant amp, but pretty good sized. Weighed just under 11 lb.
Cost $16 and change.
Coincidentally - there was a hang up with the paperwork that delayed it by a couple days getting out of town, but hopefully it will go smoothly from here.

I'v been importing goods from the states for 3+ years now, and i know how to get around paying for customs fee's. (car audio, bike parts, paintball, tobacco, ect.. ect...)
- ALWAYS ship with USPS. Either airmail, global priority, or overnight express
-Make sure the sender marks it off as a gift.
-State the item value under $60 if possible. Anything worth over $60 is taxable.
-On the box, write "repair" a few times in permanent marker.
-Inside the box, leave a note stating that the item needs repair, or is a gift. example-( Sub is in need of a recone, severly damaged. Get back to me at ********) This is incase customs opens the package to check out the contents.
- In the description, be sure to mention " damaged" (so that the item value is belivable)
Since iv been using this method, i have never had any problems. Whatever you do, do NOT ship with UPS (especially ground). You WILL get dinged.
Good luck!
