Usually Stan has good suggestions, so I called DHL just to 

see. I was so overwhelmed by the rates I HAD to repost:

First pound: $133.92 Canadian / $86.40 US
Each additional half kilo / 1.1023 pounds: $22.07 Canadian / 

$14.65 US

For what I want to ship it would be cheaper to fly to Germany 

and pick it up myself.

Thanks,
Chris
