Do you live close enough to any border? Might as well just get it delivered there and import it yourself. But I agree with your point. It is really frustrating

But I agree with your point. It is really frustrating to find certain things in Swiss shops. And even if you do it is just crazy expensive.
- mft_ 8y agoYou're right - I do, and I often do :) But even then, you've got the added hassle of making the trip. And interestingly, amazon.de isn't always great value - it seems to vary more (with weirdly high prices for some things) than I remember from amazon.co.uk. (My impression is that maybe amazon has a smaller presence in Germany, leading them to rely more on 3rd-party, not-fulfilled-by-amazon sellers?) One positive aspect is that losing my reliance on amazon has led me to discover a couple of quite good Chinese websites - for many small items, I now use either banggood.com or gearbest.com
