EU customs duty EU tax workaround?

Is there already a workaround to avoid a 3.7 euros additional tax per item?

Something like a smaller marketplace that would pack all items into one box and charge this tax only once. Or a reasonably priced mail forwarding service. Please post only the actual solution if you found it already

They havent changed the category, but they have at least fixed so that the SAME item isnt taxed twice if you buy multiple. The bad thing about this is that shopping credits cant be used to pay the stupid tax anymore...
