A quick google search shows raspberry pi 4 8gb ram selling at 140 eur in italy, 100 eur in hungary. If you live in the eu why do you limit your searches to one country? It feels like those people complaining they cant find ps5s or gpus yet i comfortably sourced mine from various countries, new, at a decent price, even during the pandemic. If you own a small ltd you can even buy them vat free.

Is it actually in stock at this price? Where I am, local price tracker, tweakers.net, also shows some listings for ~100 euro, but if you click through to the seller's website, it says there "not in stock, delivery date unknown". If you limit to what you can actually buy, it's ~200 euros, and even that - often with a week or two of lead-time.

  I’ve noticed listings like that more and more lately. A dark pattern where you initially think something is in stock but is actually sold by a third party of a third party.

Galagomarket seems to have the RPi 4B 8GB in stock for 99€. Don't know where they ship, but the website is translated into Croation, English, German, Italian, Serbian, Hungarian, Slovenian and Slovakian. I bought from them in Feb 2021 and got mine delivered quickly. https://www.galagomarket.com//item/display/1953 https://www.galagomarket.com//item/display/1953

  Thanks for the link - i love this kind of small shops selling hobby electronics. I dont see an indication that they dont ship in all of the eu, at least according to their tocs. Seems like sending to outside slovenia costs 5 eur, peanuts. What i do usually is i just email them beforehand to be sure - a good test of their responsiveness as well.

This! Its why I love using geizhals, you can select to show all sellers from not just your own country but all of EU,UK as well. And immediately filter for availability and shipping.
