Ouch, $90 is pretty much... Would have to buy stuff for atleast $1000 to justify that...
no way it is that much... you do not have to send it as priority mail, it will just take a little while. i sent a package (16 pounds) for 60 bucks airmail, but if i woulda sent it regular, it would have cost me way less. just go and ask (or have your friend go and ask )

Of course there are other options, but FedEx and USPS are the ones I use. And if you check USPS's website and calculate the postage, you will see that $90 is the cheapest option available. It is cheaper if you choose "Envelope" when calculating the postage, but I don't think you can define 10kg as an envelope. ^^

FedEx is very reliable, but it only makes sense to go with them if you want your package to be somewhere at an exact date... if time isn't quite an issue, don't go for services like those that charge more the sooner you want your package to arrive. It might take a few weeks with standard shipping methods, but it will cost you much less for sure.
Cheers
