How do I "shop around" for international shipping prices? Got any tips for shipping internationally?

I had to send a Gamecube Broadband Adapter to the UK a month ago and I couldn't get a price less than $24 from UPS or USPS. They simply wouldn't budge, as if there were no cheaper option. I had to unexpectedly split the cost of shipping with the buyer. Hell, I sent it so cheap that I have no idea if it ever got there (I haven't received word from the buyer yet)! I saw other people on eBay offering $10 insured international shipment on the same item. HOW? I was sending a retail-boxed item, and it is possible that the others were smaller bagged "Genuine Part" items, but the difference is still too much.

UPS at Office Depot had no way to input the European address, plus they were a few dollars more. Fed Ex would be more than that if they even deliver internationally (Do they?). Does Airborne Express ship internationally? Who else should I try?

Thnx!
