Anybody have experience using Amazon.com to buy books: they have a credit card for 1st payment for 1st buyer/user? (I've never bought anything on that website)

(I've already looked over the help area on their website and emailed them-but probably will get no response)

I was wondering after you submit that, can you change it to a money order?
Otherwise, on a second purchase does it ask you for a credit card or other payment methods?

{The only reason I see the use of a credit card at intial purchase is so a buyer doesn't cheat amazon}

Amazon accepts credit cards because it sells millions of books per day.. Imagine if everyone send a money order for Harry potter... it'd take forever.. Credit cards are instant and therefore, every online site uses them.. Just use a credit card.. Amazon isn't going to steal your identity, fool.. :laugh:
 
"Next, let us know how you would like to pay for your order. We accept American Express, Diners Club, Discover, JCB, MasterCard, Eurocard, MasterMoney, Visa, Visa Check Cards, Amazon.com gift certificates, or a check, money order, or cashier's check denominated in U.S. dollars and drawn on a U.S. bank. All orders must be prepaid. If you 're paying with a credit card, enter the number without spaces or dashes."

First, Amazon has thousands of people working for them to supply these orders and do transactions/mailing.
I KNOW Amazon won't steal my information --just hackers for identity theft . If money orders took so long to do why would they still accept them then? :idea:
