Welcome to Geekhack!

Yeah, international shipping is definitely a killer going really anywhere. As far as browns vs reds go, many people don't like browns, so maybe reds would be a better choice.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. :)

I don't know if there are any mech boards that really stand out to me that you should wait for.
If you want a good first board, I am sure you can get some decent rates from people inside of Europe who are on the forum.
I like reds for gaming. Nice and smooth experience.

Welcome to Geekhack!

I'm not sure of where you would get a keyboard from, nor whether there is a specific Greek layout.

The Keyboard Company in the UK might have more reasonable shipping: http://www.keyboardco.com/

If you are interested in topre, I would check the classifieds. I vaguely remember seeing a couple of topre boards for sale in europe there!  :) Welcome to Geekhack!

I'd guess at that price you'd be looking for a secondhand Topre keyboard - most new Topre keyboards are $200+!

Yes, the Novatouch is another option, but comes with ABS keycaps and many do not like the legends thereon.  So you might be up for a decent set of PBT keycaps on top of the Novatouch price.
