Looking for 2 pcs of Model M stabiliser inserts. One each of horizontal and vertical type inserts. I am based in Germany so prefer receiving from someone in the EU.

Those are replacement parts that most people will not keep extras extras of.
The vertical ones are more scarce than horizontal ones.

Unicomp sells them for $1 a piece (but $15 in shipping - what an outrage!). Just need to find someone who has them in Europe. Or if someone has a beat up Model M in parts ....

While the price of goods in the US are the cheapest in the world, postage and shipping prices are among the most expensive.
Unicomp is not in the business to attempt to profit from shipping charges - shipping charges continue to be raised by all carriers, public and private.
The actual shipping charge for even the lightest trackable package containing 2 stabilizer inserts to Europe is currently a minimum charge of $13.78. For this shipping amount, you can add up to 4 ounces (113 grams). Hence, it might be a good idea to add other light weight items to a package and pay the same minimum.
Write to Unicomp and make a list of desired items and see if they will be able to accommodate.
