It is necessary
- - a computer;
- - access to the Internet;
- - postal address with zip code;
- - bank card or electronic wallet (optional).
Instructions
Step 1
Before proceeding with the ordering of the selected book, carefully study the terms of delivery. Estimate the approximate time frame in which the purchase will be with you (you can use the Russian Post website for this). Think about whether you can pick up a parcel or a parcel post (perhaps you will be away by the time it arrives, and the post office takes a fee for every day of storage beyond the established period, and returns unclaimed items to the address from which they came).
Find out if there are penalties if you don't pick up your order (for example, some will automatically add their costs to your future orders).
Step 2
Select the delivery method (by mail) and payment from those offered by the online store or another provider.
You can make a prepayment of the order by credit card, e-wallet, terminal, bank or postal transfer or otherwise. Usually, shipping by cash on delivery is also offered, when you deposit money in the mail upon receipt of the order. This is usually the most expensive option, but not always. If you choose it, make sure that you have the required amount by the time you receive it. Often, when choosing a delivery method, you will be able to find out the full cost of the order, taking into account this service.
Step 3
Enter your postal address with zip code in the form provided. If there are several options, give preference to the one that is most convenient for you. Complete the checkout and wait for the notification. Often online stores offer customers to register. After this simple procedure, information about you, the delivery address and its preferred method remains in your personal account. If necessary, this data can be changed at any time. The personal account also makes it possible to track the fate of your orders.
