European All Purpose Online Shop? (sopuli.xyz)

Hi all,

Does anyone know an online shop with a big and wide-spread assortment that isn't just a marketplace with individual suppliers?

I haven't bought expensive stuff from amazon for years but still used it occasionally to fill some gaps from my shopping list for small special items that I couldn't find offline. You can easily get all of that in other online shops or marketplaces like eBay but you'd have to order everything separately: You'll pay shipping multiple times and produce way more waste for packaging.

Sample shopping list:

  • Sweetening vanilla flavor drops (you typically get those in sport related shops where you also get protein powder)
  • Yellow or green shoe laces with 140cm length
  • Environment-friendly sunscreen stick with UV protection of 50

I know individual online shops where I can all of that but is there a shop where I might get this (or similar weird combinations of stuff) all in one box?

Kind regards, rbn

Galaxus, Proshop

Thanks. Galaxus.ch (the Swiss version) seems to be pretty close. They indeed have vanilla drops (even from multiple brands), shoe laces in 140 cm (even though unfortunately not green or yellow) and sun screen sticks.

Their German version of the shop unfortunately seems to sell mainly electronics.

Which ProShop are you referring to? Proshop.de seems to be also mainly electronics.

You're in Germany? Have you tried Otto.de

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Good hint. In case of my sample shopping list, they have only the laces (quite nice ones though) but will keep them in mind for the future.

Galaxus is our own Amazon, it has Digitec for everything computer related (it is the same company).

But Galaxus is growing, they opened Galaxus.fr a year or two ago, maybe that one being in the EU makes it simpler to deliver inside the EU (I never tried it as Iโ€™m on the .ch)
