In reply to post #1 ...
I sold a board on Ebay and used the Post Office. They moaned it was over 1.5 metres but I pointed out to them that their sizing rules were a little ambigous to say the least. My board was a 161 and by the time I'd packed it up it was aroud a 165 cm long package.

In the end they let me send it Royal Mails Standard Parcels and paid for the extra insurance to cover it getting lost.

You could always use TNT or UPS but I'm sure there a smaller couriers out there that can help you.
