These are shipping to everyone BTW (USA orders all shipped, Finland orders packed and started shipping). There are only 7 left in USA, otherwise sold out.

Sasan -- they just hiked the prices recently (it was already high). We asked why, they said that NO ONE is sending letters anymore. The only cost effective shipments from here come as larger packages 4kg+.

Country has a large area, small population, not a lot of international ties, disconnected from everything by water, and is extremely wired up the wazoo (with cellphones + internet).

Sign of the times that analog touch is dying.

Interesting, in a genuine, non-sarcastic way.

More painful to us than anything :(

The true reason is also that a ton of people are migrating out of the small towns towards Helsinki. So, the countryside is vast, letter sending is declining greatly, but full postal service must be available in the entire country. So, charging on sending letters everywhere has gone up to subsidize that ... yes this is a true social welfare system.

However, it is driving a lot of business out.

We are looking into fulfillment from other countries with cheaper shipping options because it's kicking our + our customers' asses.
