Seems like they're not available here, and if they are, they cost a fortune.

I'd send the money via paypal in advance of course. I know of the "danger" that customs opens the package and I'd have to pay the VAT, but at least I'd still have a CPU then.

I dont know how much shipping would be, but newegg has them for 329 USD with free shipping (or maybe you know a cheaper e-tailer?), so I'd only have to pay for the shipping from your place to Germany. Maybe you could send the CPU in an "unsuspicious" package and send the receipt via e-mail, so they wont see it as an imported item but a gift from grandma, lol.

The thing is, I sold my old stuff, and now I'm without a PC. Hehe, didnt expect the 2600k to be sold out in the cheaper shops.

If it doesnt work out its not the end of the world, I'd just have to wait longer, but I thought asking doesnt hurt.
