How do I shop from Luxembourg?

Or Croatia. Weirdly, Next in both of those places has an item that is sold out in UK. But neither have the option to ship to UK.
I called the manufacturer and they won't be getting any more.
How do I order from one of those countries and get it sent to me? Hoping someone has a magic trick//...?

You can use a forwarding service, like this one
it's not the cheapest option and over a certain amount (£135 iirc) you'll have to pay VAT/duties.

Editing to add: looks like Next's EU hub is in Germany so it would be quickest to order from there.

Thank you! Item is 152eur from the Luxembourg and 199EUR from the German site!
But they both have it. Thanks

Black Friday is a big thing in Germany, less so in some other countries so it might just be priced high right now in anticipation for that? Might be worth checking Next Austria and the Netherlands as those are close to Germany and the forwarder is also in Germany.

Also wanted to add since you're close/over the threshold for VAT and duties, I think you can fill in whatever value amount you want on the export documents with the forwarder to avoid the added taxes.
