There's no such thing as hobbyists selling stuff to other hobbyists in the EU. The only exception is selling used stuff at flea market. All other sales must be cone with a registered business and then all these CE, RoHS, WEEE, warranty things apply from sale #1 on. Europe is not particularly founder friendly.
Sounds like a PITA.
Then again, how do European regulators cope with hobbyists providing each other with hardware at cost?
In the US wee wouldn't even consider that a sale, more like compensation for an expense or a transfer of goods w/o profit.
