?? VPN... I dont think you get it... this site is non-profit. You post here for free because other people (like myself) pick up the tab. The shirts are made and sold at a loss. Sending you a shirt would cost us even more because of where you live.
No one is trying to make a buck. Your excuses are weak in my book, and I'm just being honest. With the amount of time people have donated to build this site, keep it online and running smoothly, make the shirts, package them and mail them out it really gets to me when people say something like you have...
The truth is that you CAN afford the shirt... if you dont like the design, that would be fair... but to say you cant afford it is utter and total BS.
I certainly cant afford the shirts, and guess what.... I personally paid for each and every one of them upfront with my own money. I did that because I knew that people would want to have a shirt to go along with their new bike... In my opinion it's my obligation for being part of this community.
Other members stepped up... and that's very cool.. Heck.. I even sent a shirt to Australia of all places.. and that's a first!
- I really dont know what to say other than your statements are kinda what makes the Internet suck. You just want everything for free.
You know what free means? Free means someone else is paying.
-hmmmph

I feel with him. The poor guy will have to dash out more than double this amount over in Finland before he can drive one home. 
...then he should pay $50 for HIS t-shirt  ....just kiddin' VPN....I remember when I was in Denmark and saw the prices on a little Ford Escort...HOLY SHIATSU!!!!
