It is possible? Yes, you can either find a global seller or a eu parcel forwarding service with a eu based seller.
Is it economical? Not even remotely close. You'll pay a premium after msrp. Since you're buying tech, expect the costs to be high due to packaging and the high msrp.
I respect wanting to buy EU, but unless you're financially stable, I'd just look for a local company instead, or Canada (though the premium isnt much lower for most)
Would that even make sense, economically and especially environmentally this can't be desirable.
If anything, you could maybe order straight from the source in China or wherever it's made, given they stell it there. Hauling stuff around the world twice seems excessive. Also if the goods were made in the US shipped to Europe and then back to e.g. Canada it would be even more nonsensical probably? So knowing whether something is exclusively made in the US might be important, too.
Europe has some national and international online stores, however, they usually don't ship across the Atlantic to my knowledge.
You can try though: Alza should be Alza.cz but .de works too Bol.de Otto.de I don't know others by name but those are some market places
What is going to cause problems is shipping, especially as they may be heavier items.
[email protected] might be better pricewise.
