When you are ready for the book, and ready to pay for it, purchasing is easy enough from within the sample. While you have it open, press the Menu button, then toggle your 5-way switch to the words Buy this Book Now and press in on it to select. It is as good as yours!
Nothing is etched in stone - Returning an Item
When you are browsing the Kindle store with your Kindle, that Buy Now button is the first thing highlighted on every book. If you accidentally press in on your 5-way switch, you could find a book you really don't want on its way to your Kindle. Fortunately, Amazon has an instant cancellation choice at the time of every purchase. Select Purchase by Accident? Cancel this Order on the order confirmation page. If you missed that, and you are a US customer, you can also contact Kindle Support using Amazon's Click-to-Call service on the Internet at http://amazon.com/kindlesupport. Explain to them what happened, and they will take care of it for you. This is a great service. I had to use it once, and they called me immediately!
