Shipping up to Finland

It's great to live in todays global economy. You can order almost anything from anywhere around the world. If only you are willing to pay for the shipping.

It costs a lot to get anything shipped here in Finland. At least outside Europe (and mostly from China as well), but that has an additional burden of import fees and taxes added.

It's not nice to find something you want/need and even for a reasonable price only to find out getting it here can cost as much, if not even more than the item itself. Even the cheapest untracked options aren't that cheap after all considering there is no tracking or any guarantees you will eventually get your order.

On the other hand global deliveries is one of the biggest contributors to the climate change. Doesn't matter if it's something you order particularly or if it's something bought from the local market where it was shipped across the world. It's just a good things the delivery costs something as well. If only some of that cost would actually go towards offsetting all those emissions.
