I've used UPS a couple of times for frames and complete groups and Parcel Force for cheaper, individual components.
Neither have let me down, but the reassurance of the man in brown is welcome when larger sums of money are at stake.
I wouldn't recommend the use of a broker (Parcel Monkey etc). I found the extra link in the chain complicated matters considerably when things went awry domestically.
Is there a thread for recommended international couriers for bikes? If there is not, has anyone got any recommendations?
