for anyone who wants to offer actual advice: its a lenovo thinkpad t450 with a soldered i5-5300U that hits over 90C when running cargo compiles. I have changed the thermal paste and it didn't do much.

They don't ship to where I live ¯_(ツ)_/¯
So use a shipping forwarder
As someone who desperately wants a fair phone but it doesn't ship here, consider what it means to buy a repairable device when replacement parts are not easily obtained.
any in greece?
No idea. Shipito.com is what I used
Edited, thanks
I used Aramex's shop&ship (both times), I found them from Courier Center's website.
The cost was a bit much, but nothing compared to the laptop itself (and also I really didn't want to buy yet another laptop that in a few years would be obsolete and unrepairable).
The laptop's order shipping was €70 and it took ~10 days after it arrived at their location. You can compare the shipping cost to/from various countries, my DIY package was 4.5kg
Edit: just a few days after making this comment, I received an email from Framework that they started shipping to Greece, among other countries!
