There are actually companies that will let you ship a big box of stuff to them and they'll break it up and ship it out to your customers. I used to work for one and we got a fair amount of business from people who did similar things to candy japan because it's often much cheaper (and faster!) to ship one huge box via air freight from one country to another and pay for a lot of local postage (and handling fees) than it is to ship everything direct internationally. I think this has to do with the "someone has to touch it" premium that individual boxes have. In other words UPS ground in the US is $5 minimum (and that's with a big commercial discount) no matter how close the destination is and how light the box is. But 50lbs isn't $250, it might only be $35 or $70 depending on the distance.
