So what makes this store so special really? "its size despite its very remote location": What size is that? How remote is Tuuri? -- Kimiko 21:20, 28 Feb 2004 (UTC)

It is literally a very small place indeed (not in the top 50 anyway; conceivably not in the top 100 biggest towns). The department store is on the order of the biggest in the whole country. This article definitely needs work, but a worthy subject, nevertheless. -- Cimon Avaro on a pogostick 21:46, Feb 28, 2004 (UTC)

Where is this "over 5m customers" from? www.tuuri.fi isn't an accurate source for this. that's like using Apple Co. as a source for a statement saying "98% of the world's computers are Macs". Please find another source for the figure, as I personally doubt that there are 5 million customers per year (there's only 5,3m people in Finland, plus maybe some 0,5m tourists per year; not every finn goes to that shop every year). 5 million visits to the shop is a completely different thing to having 5 million customers. In 5 millions visits, 100 000 people living nearby can do 80%+ of them), meaning there might only be around 200 000 or so different customers.--85.49.227.162 04:09, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the source: http://www.mek.fi/web/stats/Publish.nsf/(pages)/Kavijamaarat?OpenDocument from the Finnish Tourist Board. Veljekset Keskinen is the most popular tourist attraction in Finland. -- Jniemenmaa 07:57, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
