if you are buying on-line then you have the best protection (should you have a problem with your order) when you pay with your credit card (Not a debit card such as switch or maestro) MasterCard, visa, american express etc.
as for best way to buy what exactly do you mean?
I recently ordered via amazon the vendor was in Texas USA and i got the order seven days later. I paid via credit card.
Paying by cash, cheque or wire transfer etc. is the easiest way to get ripped off. though pay pal does offer some protection you need to read more on pay pal at paypal.com.
as with everything in your life the choice is ultimately yours. do the wise thing and put the cash to one side (to pay your credit card bill) then pay on plastic. if the goods fail to arrive you can as a last resort claim the money back against your credit card company so keep paper copies of all your credit card transactions just in case you need to claim.
in the UK you should be covered by the distant selling regulation etc if you are buying on-line for example.
alternatively you could travel to the states to buy your books and bring them back in your luggage.
good luck and happy shopping.

definite, i purchase distinctive books; i ought to have hundreds. I additionally use the library plenty - my community one is astounding. I sidestep supermarkets as much as i will - those human beings see books as purely yet another commodity, like baked beans. there's a WHSmiths approximately 8 miles away which I browse around each now and then. regrettably, the beautiful eclectic little bookstall in my city closed down. (presently formerly Waterstones moved in. The vendors reported publicly that this grew to become into no longer a element, yet I stay unconvinced.) the main suitable place, i think of, is Hay-on-Wye. i've got been there a pair of situations and not in any respect needed to circulate away!

Use your credit card - Amazon.com is the largest on-line book source. I haven't checked their shipping rates for international deliveries, but it's worth a look.

If you use a credit card, your card will be billed in pounds but paid to the vendor in dollars. There will be a small fee for the conversion.

if ordering online you'll need a credit card. Visa is the most common, "it's everywhere you want to be."
