When I moved back to the States from France a little over a year ago I mailed a package of my extra stuff by la Poste. I just packed up a box and brought it to the local branch. If you look at their website, laposte.fr, they have a link to a pdf with all of their prices:

(Look under "colissimo international" and the US is "Zone C")
It does indeed take quite a while to get the package and you need to make sure you pack well. I think the prices wind up being better than taking extra luggage on a flight and it saves tremendous hassle to not have to deal with it while traveling.
