Exclamation Shipping from the US

I was looking the 2k games webstore for some Bioshock 2 items that im missing, i selected a 10 dolars item and the shipping is 40 dolars with no variation ..only UPS.
What i would like to know is, is there any service that can buy and ship the products for me in a less expensive way? i know that there are sites that will ship it for me, but they require the exact expecifications of the items, and i just dont know the exact numbers.

Stay away from forwarders, they are terrible are charge you huge amounts for shipping.

On top of that they force to pay taxes for the items and they will even open them up if they the value is not on the box.

You can determine the good and bad members from the Itrader system if that helps:

Just what ever you do, don't use Forwarders, you will regret it.

Worst one is Borderlinx, terrible service.
