International shipping

I have a friend in Poland and I want to send her a care package.
I just looked up UPS shipping cost based on an estimated weight/value and it costs over $240! To ship a 5lb package who's contents are only valued at $25.
Wtf? This can't be right?
Did I do something wrong in the information or this a generally accepted price?

Seriously, if I wanted to I could just throw the next gay guy I come across right up against a wall and give him an anal assault and he wouldn't complain one bit.

Use Paypal and send money instead, with instructions on what to spend it.

Well I was wanting to send food from Buffalo. I doubt one could buy Sahlen's and Niagara sponge candy in Gdynia.

Postage is a bitch.... always.
Crappy fact of life.

If it's got dimensions past an envelope you pay out the ass.

I buy cigarettes for a friend from Israel. I get free shipping on 32$ cartons of camels. Can't be that much. Takes 15-20 days for snail. EMS is otherwise the best way to go
