Cost of sending/mailing

I had to send a document from Managua to USA via DHL and it costed $60.00. FedEx charges about the same price. What does it cost to send via Nicaraguan mail?

Very inexpensive compared to DHL. Depending on size and weight, should cost under 80 cords,less than $3.

A letter to the United States costs under 50 cents and takes 1 to 2 weeks to arrive.  A registered letter costs about $1, but is significantly slower due to international tracking.  EMS Courier (Expressmail) takes 3 to 4 days and costs about $35.

With a taxi, I'd probably have spent half of what I did.
