I don't know if somebody have already asked it ( I checked but I didn't find any posts about this, or I'm just lousy looker ) but how can I order from Amazon? I've tried but I always have failed. And also does anybody know how much it costs shipping to Estonia? Thanks!

I´ve used Amazon. But only the German site so I just have to register and can pay with my bank account and don´t need a credit card. Shipping is 3 euros. Do you use amazon.com?

Hey! I order from Amazon frequently and it's really easy once you do it once! You will probably need to use www.amazon.co.uk, unless there is a specific amazon site for your country. I live in Greece and I use the uk site which I think delivers to all of Europe. First thing you need to do is set up an acount. There you will enter a username and a password and the address you want your order to be shipped. Most importantly, you give the number of the credit card you want to charge your orders on. Once you have set up an acount, the fun begins. You can look around the site for books, cds, dvds or whatever you want. When you see something you might want to buy you click on 'Add to wishlist' or 'Add to shopping cart'. Don't worry, you can totally change your mind and not buy it! When you are done, you click 'Proceed to checkout'. You are then tranferred to a secure page where you verify the address and credit card number. There you can also enter a different address if you are buying a present for someone or change the quantity of each item. You follow the steps and finally you will be prompted to place your order if you are sure you are done. Once you do that, an email will be sent to you verifying the charge and informing you of when you should be expecting your order to arrive. And basically that's it! You just have to wait for the package! PS The delivery charge is different for each country and for each kind of item. You can check these out by clicking the 'Delivery rates and policies' option on the home page. Also, some things cannot be delivered to some countries, but I'm pretty sure books and dvd's can be delivered to all the European countries...

I think it's 3.99$ for each item, the shipping itself costs 6.99$... it's pretty frustrating - the books cost me like the shipping. I ordered from the American site though, maybe it's cheaper if you order from the English one!

Maybe it depends where you live? How far is it from the place where they ship the books?! I don't now. But thanks also oureternity!

I think that anyone outside the US who order from Amazon.com has to pay shipping 6.99$ for each package - and for each item 3.99$ (for books that is, DVD's and stuff is cheaper). So if, for instance - you order 3 books, you pay 6.99$+ 3 times 3.99$.. it's around 18$

But, when you have the Euro, Things aren't so expensive now, since the dollar is very low.. compared to the euro.. (I think it's that way.. I aways get confused with euro dollar etc.)
