I should be travelling to Finland a few times over the next several months. If you like, I can get the books for you and bring them (to Helsinki and possibly Tampere) if you have trouble getting them. Just send me a message at meattpuppett@yahoo.com and I can arrange whatever will work for you (i.e. drop them somewhere for you to pick up, leave them in a tree, etc....). If I can help you in this situation I definitely will (it really stinks)! Don't worry about cost, if it will help get you out of this hell, I'll do it for free.
BTW, There are some pretty huge differences between American and Finnish cultures. Unless we are both drunk, then you can only tell us apart by our accents. :-)
