Anyone here Kindle users?

How do you purchased your ebooks ? Do you purchase your e-book at Amazon or you just download from various websites?

I tried to purchase e-books through Amazon but cannot go thru due to region issue. I need to contact their customer service to proceed with the payment.

Do you face similar issue?

Use BigPay easier. Or you can purchase giftcard but will be cost you more.
And change to amazon.in to get cheaper price.

get https://calibre-ebook.com/ calibre ebook management, it will connect to your kindle naturally with provided USB cable on your windows PC.

Use calibre to auto download/upload ebooks to kindle.

for books, get from internet such as zlib, archive.org or the-eye.eu.

Only issue with Amazon is that region locking limits you from some titles. I think which credit card doesn't matter but it might sometimes complain if your card issuing country doesn't match your region.
