I have a nano VNA but haven’t fully learned how to use it yet. I am convinced that it packs a lot of functionality and processing power into a tiny package. But one problem (for me) is the tiny screen along with its tiny touch-sensitive controls. At my age, traditional test gear (with switches and controls) is often easier for me to use.

Wait, VAT and import duties to Germany included??

It seems it would cost me more or less 230-240, including all, to Italy  :-//

Prices went up in last year. DE-5000 used to be around 100 USD on E-Bay. And tax and import rules changed recently so they charge tax on everything.
That is why I said Eleshop: price is pretty much same as if you are importing it from some "exotic" source, you get EU company as a source, with fast shipping, warranty and customer protection... Even if it is 10-20 € more that is worth something too.

Makes sense... Do you think it's still worth the money though? For 240€?

Read what other people wrote. It works really well.
Everything else also had their prices rise.

Your cheaper alternative is UNi-T UT612. It is not 4-Wire (kelvin) but works well enough.
