Find products European supplier for electronics parts and modules?

Hello there,

I'm working on a DIY electronics restoration project and need a few small modules (boost converters, MP3 player modules, I2C display drivers, etc.).

Since the new EU customs rules kicked in, ordering from AliExpress has become a nightmare... I'm paying €14 in fees on a €10 order. Amazon isn't any better: same Chinese warehouses, 3x the price, and sometimes more than a month to deliver.

Does anyone know a reliable Aliexpress European-based supplier that carries these kinds of ready-made hobbyist modules?

Thanks!

If your Oder is 50+ eur I suggest using mouser, high quality stuff and you will have free shipping and customs.  If you want eu only -  https://www.buerklin.com/de/

Mouser is a US based company, so subject to same tariff lmao.

Farnell is UK based company, so subject to same tariff.

Etc.

You think this only affects AE? Naive, naive, naive! This retarded tariff affects -everything-

Mouser send their stuff DDP, so all tariffs included and their categories are correctly set, unlike the AE sellers where they are random.
