Ah sorry my wife is an aerobics instructor so we means me and her. She drinks all the powders. I just eat vitamins from there and some of the chocolate bars.

Nice.

I'm assuming you pay taxes when you go to pick up your package? I'm not very familiar with ordering stuff online in the EU.

You dont pay any extra taxes, you pay UK vat if they sell less than 50ke(?)/year in finland and finnish vat if more but anyway its their problem not yours.
You pay what they bill and nothing more. Outside of eu its totally different.

Thank you.

I suppose I'll be ordering from this company in the future. The selection and price are much better than anything I've seen in Finland. Also, the peanut butter isn't very expensive.

Same thing goes for almost anything you can buy. Pisses me off to be honest. I live here, my kids are Finnish, I'd love to spend all my money in Finland but I just can't afford to. I find myself buying almost everything online from abroad apart from food. Just spent a few hundred here:

http://www.sportsdirect.com/default.aspx

£9 delivery fee to Finland. I got a pair of trainers for £40 they are €100 - €150 here. I'd love to go into intersport or stadium and buy stuff but the markup is ridiculous. Something needs to change. If I could buy food abroad I would. The supermarket trip is double the price here sometimes triple. Madness.
