Inexpensive Shipping to EU

Hey Folks--could use some advice. I have a box containing some audio equipment parts that I want to ship to Portugal. I went to the local Fedex and UPS facilities but they are quoting me $500 to ship a box full of parts that are not worth anything close to that amount. The box is roughly 20w by 12h by 20d and weighs approximately 50lbs. Is there an international shipper that you could recommend that will get this to Portugal on the cheap? I'd spend $200 if necessary but would like to send it for less. Suggestions are appreciated.

Yeah, USPS. DHL would be expensive but might be less than either FedEX or UPS. I like DHL.

Thanks everyone. After all that running around trying different carriers the best price was to be had with USPS. It went out today.

I received quite a number of bought records from Japan via DHL. Very fast and reliable, excellent on-line tracking, and the packages looked as if they had not been even touched, well except for some dirt outside.
