Well, if your order has a battery in it, its going by sea. There's a number of threads on it over on the hobbyking forums.
Customers aren't really informed of it, so not a mistake. Guess they also make a buck or two off of you as they probably get to keep the extra you pay for shipping.
I don't see any issues with ordering batteries from their US site, its just a R/C battery. Duties and taxes are expected so that's not really an issue.
Send them an email? I don't know about Fedex, I only had a standard airmail option when I went to place my order.
