I used to be able to get Garuda to halve my excess down to $8 per kilo. Smile, ask if you can get a discount, and they will direct you to the manager's office. The first time I tried, he reduced it by half without even looking at me. He knew I flew quite often with them.
The post option is good for larger quantities though, by my calc that second shipment came down to around $3 per kg. But the first one was around $7 per kg. Also if coming in by post you have a higher ($1000) limit before they hit you up for Import Duty and GST.
