Buying spare parts in the EU
XPS 15 9570
Hi all,
I need a reasonably cheap part (left fan, 008yy9) for my XPS 9570 but for some reason I cannot find it anywhere in the EU. Buying it from China/USA/UK will end up making a cheap part pretty expensive when shipping, VAT, customs duty and customs handling fees are added.
I tried reaching out to IPC-Computer in Germany but they have completely given up on customer requests for items from this (all?) manufacturer(s) due to availability issues and lack of price lists.
Any ideas where I might have more luck?
Cheers,
- Tom

Ended up buying a used fan with a parts number matching the original (008YY9) from Parts4YourLaptop in Lithuania via ebay. It works flawlessly.

Have you tried the Amazon page here in Germany?

Yes. All listings are either dispatched from China, unavailable or don't ship to Denmark (my location). Only exception is a seller from Germany who asks €55 (€75 with shipping), which is ridiculous.

Still searching for a fan in the EU. The part number of the actual fan in the laptop is 008YY9 but when I search for the fan by the laptop name (XPS 9570), fans that look similar but with different part numbers show up. Is there a way to check if these are actually interchangeable - like a Dell parts list?
The part numbers are:
Thanks,
