I just found some guideline how to buy manga online.. THis is the tips :-
1) You need a credit card. Without a credit card, you severely limit the number of places you can shop at. VISA or MasterCard are the best choices. I can't help you get a credit card, so if you don't have one or don't have access to one, please don't ask me.
2) You need to live in a country where the store will ship to. While this usually means anywhere in the world, if you live in the middle of Antarctica, that could be a problem.
3) The country you live in might restrict imports (for content), or tax you for importing goods (especially if you exceed a certain limit). Don't forget to take this into account in your purchases.
4) Shipping prices vary widely, depending on the store, where it ships from, and the speed at which you will receive your order. Decide for yourself if you really need something in 3 days, 3 weeks, or 3 months, then select the appropriate shipping option. Usually, the more you put in an order (up to a reasonable limit), the better the shipping deal you'll get. To convert Japanese yen to your home currency, try this currency exchange site.
5) Searching for a product may be a challenge because of the various different ways the store may romanise a Japanese title. Be patient and try all possibilities. If you have a ISBN, that would be the best! Note that for most stores, when searching by ISBN, you need to omit all the dashes. When all else fails, feel free to ask for help here.
