Placing Your
First Order
This page contains step-by-step instructions
on how to place your first order.
Find what you want to buy.
If you already know what you want to buy,
the easiest way to find it is to type its
name in any of the search boxes around the
website.
To get more information about a product,
click its name to see its product
information page. There you'll find:
image/s of the item
the item's availability
background information
reviews
the opportunity to buy the item from
Marketplace sellers
the buttons you need to add the item to
your Shopping Basket
Add it to your Shopping Basket.
The Shopping Basket is where you store items
you intend to buy. You can always delete
items from the Shopping Basket . When you
find what you want (or what you might want)
click the "Add to Shopping Basket"
button on the item's product information
page.
If you can't see an "Add to Shopping
Basket" button, it's because the item
is not available. If there's a
"New" or "Used" link in
the "More Buying Choices" box,
click it to access a list of alternative
sellers for the item.
When you've added everything you want to the
Shopping Basket, click "View Cart"
in the top right-hand corner of the page.
To start filling in the order form, click
the "Proceed to checkout" button.
You will now be directed through the Amazon
Checkout website.
The instructions below outline each ordering
step.
Sign in
Enter your e-mail address, select "I'm
a new customer" and click the
"Sign in" button. The e-mail
address you provide here will be the only
e-mail address we can use to communicate
with you about your order, so please
double-check it. You must use your own
e-mail address, even if you're buying
something for someone else.
Note: don't fill in the password
field--you'll be asked to provide a password
later in the process.
Enter a delivery address
Tell us where you'd like us to send your
order, and let us know if any of the items
are to be gifts (if so, you'll be given a
chance to order giftwrap and add a gift
note).
Select a delivery method and delivery
option
Consider how quickly you'd like to receive
your order, and choose a delivery method. If
the order is for UK delivery, and it
qualifies, you will be able to select free
Super Saver Delivery as your delivery
option. Super Saver Delivery is not the
default delivery method because the total
delivery time (from when you place your
order to when it arrives) for Super Saver
Delivery is 2-4 days longer than for First
Class delivery. See also Delivery Rates.
If there's more than one item in your order,
you'll be given the following delivery
options:
- Group my items into as few deliveries
as possible
- I want my items faster. Dispatch items
as they become available (at additional
cost)
If you choose the first option, we'll show
you the minimum number of deliveries needed
to complete your order. If you choose the
second option, we'll dispatch items to you
as they become available, beginning with
those already in stock. You'll be charged
for each separate delivery.
The delivery charge for your order will be
displayed on the order summary page just
before you submit your order.
Provide a password and method of payment
Choose a password for your account. We will
not provide the password for you. You'll be
able to use your e-mail address and password
to make changes to your order and account
information any time you like, so make sure
you remember which e-mail address and
password you used.
Next, let us know how you want to pay for
your order. We accept Visa, Delta, Visa
Electron, MasterCard, Eurocard, American
Express, Maestro, Solo, cheques or postal
orders (denominated in Pounds Sterling) and
Amazon UK gift certificates as payment. All
orders must be prepaid. If you're paying
with a credit or debit card, enter the
number without spaces or dashes.
Review and
submit your order
Check the information you've provided and
make adjustments by clicking the
"edit" button next to the relevant
information. When you're ready, click the
"Place Your Order" button to
submit your order. We'll then send you a
confirmation e-mail message. We'll also send
you an e-mail message when we dispatch the
order to you.
Tracking your
order
After placing your order you can make
changes to it, using Your Account right up
until we start to process the order. You can
also see the estimated dispatch date (when
we'll send the order to you) and estimated
delivery date (when it should arrive at its
destination).

DOMESTIC
SHIPPING RATES
Some items offered on our Web
site are fulfilled by independent
sellers whose shipping rates are
different than the rates listed
below. The seller of each item in
your order will be clearly noted on
the View Shopping Cart page
How are shipping costs
calculated?
We charge a single flat fee for
each shipment, plus additional,
smaller fees for each item in that
shipment. The total shipping charge
will be displayed on the last page
of the order form, before you submit
your order. Here is the equation we
use to calculate the total shipping
cost:
(Highest Applicable Per-Shipment
Cost) + (All Per-Item Costs) = Total
Shipping Fee
Note: Per-item costs for some
products are a flat rate per unit
while for others the per-item cost
is based on the product's weight.
See rate chart below for details.
We use a variety of carriers for
each shipping option. It is not
possible to specify a preferred
carrier when placing your order.
When you select One-Day or Two-Day
Shipping, we may use air or ground
shipping as necessary to get your
items to you within the promised
time frame.

APO/FPO addresses?
