I did the DHL prepaid as well to Canada and will continue to do so for two main reasons..

1) Stuff clears customs FAST. Postal packages can take 6 weeks to arrive (in fact my last Wiggle order took 7), DHL is 3 days start to finish
2) IF (and not all packages get inspected/dutied) a package comes through post and gets duty, they add a $10 processing fee. Add in the duty itself and its just as cheap to prepay the DHL charges.
