This section explains various aspects of purchasing items from the Kindle Store.
Trying a Sample Book Most Kindle books allow you to download a sample before you decide to buy the item. The end
of the sample book has a link to revisit the product detail page for the item or a link to purchase
the item directly. In addition, while reading a sample, the Menu shows "Buy this Book Now" so
you can purchase the sample at any time during your reading.
Buying Your Selections All of your Kindle Store purchases use Amazon 1-Click, which allows you to purchase reading
materials with a single selection. To make your purchase, select "Buy" from any product detail
page for the item you want. Your item will be auto-delivered wirelessly to your Kindle and also
added to the Manage Your Kindle page on Amazon.com. You will see an "items downloaded"
message at the top of the screen when your item has arrived on your Kindle.
Tip: Once your item has been downloaded, the original is retained in the Manage Your Kindle
page on Amazon.com. If the download is not successful, or if it is interrupted, Kindle will
attempt to download again without any action required from you.
Returning an Item All of your Kindle Store purchases present an order cancellation feature at the time of purchase
in case you change your mind or made a mistake. Just select "Purchase by Accident? Cancel this
Order" on the order confirmation page. If you prefer, you can also contact Kindle Support using
Amazon's Click-to-Call service on the Web at:
