For people living in Spain, https://www.coolmod.com/ is quite good. I only bought one keyboard for them earlier this year, but the delivery was fast and the tracking good. The website was intuitive too.

Bol.com is much better. Has been since time immemorial.

amazon is bottom-of-the-barrel in sweden. our local alternatives feel like they're 10+ years ahead, and that's after amazon played catch-up for the better part of two years. when they launched they had just machine-translated everything and the results were insane.

I had a good experience with the refurbished electronics market place Back Market in France (sound bar, ipad, keyboard, mouse, cooking robot, laptop). I haven't used it in a while as I moved outside of EU.

allegro.pl, has always been better than amazon, nothing changed

I've completely switched to Otto, and I'm pretty content so far. Only problem is that the choice of products isn't quite as broad

France has cdiscount.com, usually cheaper.. they dont sell books though

Here in Greece we have skroutz, bestprice and shopflix, small local shops in (one) website. Way better than amazon and faster, but prices not always good. For example macboot card cost's 25, while on amazon 14.

In Switzerland Galaxus overtook Amazon years ago. Brack appears to be improving lately, offering faster delivery options.

I don't want to end up with a duplicate Amazon problem though, so for 3rd party sellers on Galaxus, if they have their own website, I often buy directly from them.

I've lived in Poland and Sweden.

In Poland, Allegro dominates, it's much more convenient than Amazon.

In Sweden, I used Amazon once. There is no other general website like that I know of for first-hand stuff, buy you can get half-price new stuff from sites like Tradera or Blocket, or Vinted (very European), or Sellpy. I would try to pass by a charity store first, but for example for shoes it is very hard to find what I am looking for and in size 47 there.

For first-hand stuff, in Sweden, I just search (or know websites for the kind of product I am looking for), and rarely would Amazon be even competitive. For example, to buy books I often use Adlibris, and while it is not as nice as the local bookstore, they do sometimes have things I would have trouble finding otherwise (including a broad selection of books in English).

I use galaxus, kaufland or otto in germany if i want something new. Backmarket or rebuy for used tech with a guarantee and really everything else i just use kleinanzeigen most of the time

In lithuania amazon was never a thing :3.. local sites like pigu.lt varle.lt 1a.lt etc. was what everyone already used and so far I've had no issues with them

I use Libristo for books in English, which are pretty hard to come by in France. They've been okay so far, but the delivery times are a little long for my liking. I haven't used Amazon personally for ages, and I've convinced my wife to stop using them as well. I much prefer to order things from companies that are more specialised anyways; the one-stop-shop model is parasitic imo.

droix.co.uk is nice
