Weird - when I was selling my camera gear and some other stuff a couple of weeks ago I sent two international insured packages and four recorded delivery inland in about five minutes, and I thought that was taking longer than usual. The stuff I send internationally on a day-to-day basis, like the Forgotten Futures CD-ROM, just goes in a jiffy bag with a label showing its value and weight and my address, rubber stamps to show that it's "Airmail" and "Small Packet", and a few stamps, I drop it in any post box. As far as I know you can post anything that way provided it'll fit through the post box slot and you don't want insurance etc., I don't think weight comes into it.
