Last Friday the status changed to "In Picking", today to "Shipped". Received the mail from Jolla with the shipment details today at 13:17. Today the phone was also delivered by Fedex in The Netherlands. Luckily someone was there to accept it: Fedex tries 3 times, and then sends it back to Finland. My tracking order was not displayed correctly in the mail: 7.97392E+11...
But... no more sorrows, it arrived in exactly 3 weeks from ordering. Now, let's play!

There is no VAT when something is exported out of EU. It might be that Jolla is charging the same price to within EU including the Finnish VAT and to outside EU excluding VAT. That might look like a double VAT for EU outsiders, but in reality they are just charging a higher non-VAT price for EU outsiders (maybe to offset higher shipping costs, or they might not have realized intra-EU VAT implications when publishing the price).

I have to disagree. I have done some communication that have involved thousands or ten thousands people. It is always a challenge and takes plenty of time. You have to carefully balance what you can and should tell, how simple message, when, medium, check for ambiguities, not to restrict too much future options/decisions, and so on. Too much specifics and it causes problems. Too little and it causes other problems.
And when you say something, it will be torn apart by people when they are not happy for some reason.

I got the shirt delivered to Switzerland too, but didn't pay any VAT! Whenever my phone arrives I let you know what taxes they made me pay.
At least it's only an 8% penalty on top of the finnish VAT for me. I guess the Norweigan guys have it the worst with their 25%.
