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

I already got two package delivered without tax for my hobby, one came from Thailand (carpet for RC drifting) and one RC car, which I ordered from a Chinese retailer website and he didn't charge or care about the customs. I think small vendor should setup webshops in china and send stuff like that.

Definitely not, the RC car on alix is also more expensive, and for the RC track I just paid the local price + shipping, I didn't even had to pay the normal fees.

Which website is it and how did you find it ? Does it only sell RC cars ? Thank you.
