If you cannot pay with iDEAL, there are a number of other options. You can use one of several credit cards (Maestro, Mastercard or Visa). You can also pay for your books using Sofort Banking, a method mostly used by German students. If you are not able to use the above options, you can always ask someone you know to order the books for you.
