I was wondering what risk you were talking about. I've never had a problem buying new items from Amazon, and their shipping costs are the lowest around. You must mean buying second hand through Amazon?
I've been burnt once by buying that way but it is more than offset by the savings I've made.
I once thought I'd support my local bookshop and gave them a list of books I wanted. Big mistake, I paid heaps more and was waiting for about 6 months for some items that were in stock online. grrrr.
