Yep.
They do send but you have to expect at least 50€!
What I did not understand that Jolla could send it for around 20€ (via UPS).

A few years ago was trying to buy some new N9 64gb from a previous Nokia staff then it turned out that postage became almost the same as the device itself...

I find this battery paranoia absolutely ridiculous. One package in the cargo hold with a battery inside is going to down the aeroplane. Like there were not 150 passengers on the floor above, each with a phone with a battery n their pocket.

Sadly, in today's world of suicide attackers, this line of defense is not nearly as useful as it may have been in the past...

I have couple N950's that I could sell. But currently only in Finland, as Finnish post office currently doesnt allow sending batteries in the phone.
One devkit in unopened mint condition, another devkit box opened, but mint condition as device has only been used in table while developing. And I still might be one more N950's without a box somewhere in my shelves.
You did the Homescreen settings app, right? This means that there will never be updates for that? I always hoped there would be some update to it allowing wider support for background animations.

Or perhaps the cargo hold is not pressurized the same as the passenger cabin or more cold?
I managed to ship in the past via international mail and got away with it and suspect thousands of others have. I have also put cordless razor with lion battery in checked luggage a number of times and no battery explosions.

Although yeah, they can leak and catch fire. I think the worry is about fake batteries whose internals have been replaced by an explosive; since batteries are generally enclosed in a metallic sheath, and can't really be opened without being destroyed, they seem like a perfect place to hide a bomb.But yeah, I may be wrong, and the postal services just paranoid about real batteries...
EDIT: Yeah, I guess I should read up a bit more before spouting my opinions.
I guess the issue at hand really is about the dangers of regular batteries; here's a US government advisory on the subject...
