Cheapest way to ship a package international?

Nobody else?

Obviously I'm expecting it to be slow. But I don't wanna pay $40 for an item from a friend.... I could practically buy the item myself here.

Then buy it in the USA?
 
not sure about from Japan to US, but from US to the rest of the world, USPS is usually a bit cheaper than Fedex and UPS. However, at my work we have corporate discount, so we used Fedex afterall. Meanwhile, I personally much prefer Fedex's Tracking system than USPS's.

you know.. govn't run mail. like USPS.. but not USPS, because Japan isn't the US 😛

But yeah, USPS will carry it once it gets stateside.
 
I'm not sure how much it would cost for an average consumer (or whatever word I'm looking for there), but I ordered some books from amazon.co.jp and they shipped them to me via DHL. Took 2 days and cost $5. Can't beat that.
 
I would seriously consider Fedex. More expensive, but will get there in a timely matter. I tried the post office once and it took 7 weeks (they said it should take 5-10days).
