i always used nz post, even when sending $2000 TRD gear sets.
Only problems i ever had was at the other end, ozmail.
things like if you send two packages when they guy collects they only gave him one at the other end..... then after weeks of searchin, some one rings him and says "we stil have this pacakage here we told you about 3 weeks ago....."

or on new stuff often customs will charge duty

I sent two V6 cylinder heads to Australia for about $75 each through NZpost/courierpost. They weighed 21kgs each and the box would have been about 70cm x 40cm x 40cm. Both heads arrived to the recipient within a week, although one arrived two days later than the other yet I sent them at the same time so not sure what was up with that.
