My wife used to work in the shipping department of the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation; they used to break up shipments into >$500 or >$1000 (can't remember which) lots that would usually avoid customs, since they were such a "small" amount.

Their shipping isn't too bad. Can't help you with the exchange rate, though!
