Shopping on Amazon

Amazon.de charmed me personally, because of the big number of english and german books, which they can offer. It´ll be probably hard at the begining to find your category, but after you find it you´ll be very pleased with it. Because Amazon shows you with every single book other titles which you might also like and what are the other users, who bought the same book, buying. In Germany are the books often sent with free postage. In the Czech republic you can send your goods through your mailbox on Mailboxde.cz.  Let´s take a closer look at the "book ordering process" shall we:

The new book Blumen & Blüten about how to draw flowers, is selling at a price of 19,99 Euros, but it´s also possible to buy an already used book. You can see on the picture, that the same book is offered by 5 other users at the price of 13,27 Euros. So it depends whether is the book meant as a gift or if it´s ok with you even if it´s a used book. The users always have to describe the conditions of the used books. Then I recomend you to look at the ratings. If the buyers give 100% in their rating, then there is nothing to fear. Some books allow you to look through them, for this to happen, there has to be a text saying Blick ins Buch. Now shall we take a look how to order a book.
We put the chosen article in into the basket by clicking on the butten "In den Einkaufswagen" after that we go straight to the cash register. Amazon will want us to register, so we will click on "Ich bin ein neuer Kunde", where we fill out our email address and we can continue with the yellow button "Weiter".
We will then fill out the registration formular, the password and the new created account will be confirmed through "Konto anlegen". In the next step we have to fill in the mailing address "Versandadresse". It´s necessary to write down your address in Germany so that the order won´t be rejected. In the line company write "Mailboxde.com", in the line for street (Straße und Hausnummer) you will write the assigned mailing address of the storehouse in Zittau: Dresdner Str. 9, BOX Nr. # (fill in your box number in place of #). Filling in your box number is very important to determine the owner of the delivery, while its being taken into our store so that it can be put on your account in our system. Also click on the butten: Ist diese Adresse auch Ihre Rechnungsadresse, so you´ll mark off, that the valid account address is different.  


We will choose the way of transportation in the next step. Free postage is for books orders.
Now we just need to pay. The fastest and cheapest way is to pay with your credit card. Because the bank isn´t charging for credit card payments. If you are not allowed to pay with your credit card, then go to your bank and establish this service into your card. 
The methods of payment will be in the next article.
