Anybody ever heard of / used this company...

[froit]

A normal 5-wall costs just under 700 USD in the market in Ulaanbaatar. That is with inner liner, one layer of cheap felts, canvas and outer cover. Its not really waterproof or moisture-resistant, but perfect for the Mongolian user and climate.
Transport by container to somewhere else adds cost, financing it, import-levies and VAT in country of sale, local storage after arrival, delivery to customer, after-sales, it all adds.
