> Amazon is an easy first stop but they make it super hard to do comparative research (sort by price does not sort by price, no useful filters, inconsistent or missing product info, etc.) and so I usually do end up putting it in google/ddg instead and finding an alternative store to buy from, or get something second-hand (within reason).

Since you're in Germany you might want to take a look at aggregators like Geizhals or Idealo. Geizhals in particular enables the user to narrow down product searches by a very complete property/attribute filter. Once you found some products that meet your requirements, both services will show you were they are sold. You will notice that Amazon rarely has the best price and the quality/accuracy of their product listings, descriptions, etc. is downright terrible.

Amazon still features fast, reliable fulfilling, but so do some other shops. Bottom line is that you have lots of choices in Germany.
