I expect and even encourage multiple anwsers. My main concern is computer parts and other tech related products but other specialities welcomed.

It is possible? Yes, you can either find a global seller or a eu parcel forwarding service with a eu based seller.

Is it economical? Not even remotely close. You'll pay a premium after msrp. Since you're buying tech, expect the costs to be high due to packaging and the high msrp.

I respect wanting to buy EU, but unless you're financially stable, I'd just look for a local company instead, or Canada (though the premium isnt much lower for most)
