LCSC: >$20 shipping, plus VAT/fees on top. Very cheap for some parts, expensive for others.
TME: <10eur shipping. Surprisingly cheap for many parts (e.g. reels of jellybean parts).
mouser: Free shipping on orders >=50eur (+VAT), VAT paid on their end, FedEx, 2 working days. noopwafel does regular(ish) orders, can always add parts for people.
digikey: Free shipping on orders >=50eur (+VAT), VAT has to be paid to DHL (but no fees), 2 working days.
Farnell: Free shipping on orders >=50eur (+VAT), but only from European stock, 1 working day. Through benadski or sebastius no minimal order.
RS: Free shipping on orders >=50eur (+VAT), 1 working day.

(Note: noopwafel plans to buy a bunch of jellybean parts too, this is just 'weird' stuff.)
