ECommerce shipping solution

I just setup a new storefront using osc. I am going to sell jade jewelry like jade pendant, jade necklace, jade bracelet and etc. At the same time, I am looking for shipping solution. I got shipping rates from UPS, Fedex, DHL and so on and I found that the shipping cost is much more expensive then my product cost (as I am from Asia country). I am wondering how other site can ship in so cheap. Anyone who has experience in ecommerce, pls advice. Thanks.

Shipping costs a lot of dough. For small packages shipped within the USA, First Class US Mail is the most economical - and what I use for small items. If you do lots of small items shipped to USA addresses, then having a shipping partner in the USA might be a good idea.
