OPAMP Technical Books, Inc.
1033 N.Sycamore Ave.
Los Angeles, Ca 90038
(213) 464-4322

is an excellent bookstore for technical books (in particular Computer).
It has a mail order service. Their catalogue says:

To order by mail: specify title, author, publisher, quantity, (and page
number if ordering from their catalog). Include your physical address for
shipping. We cannot ship to a P.O. box.

They accept charge cards (include card type, card number, expiration date,
day time phone number), and checks (imprinted with name and address, and
with work & home phones, driver license no.,state, date of birth).

The only distinction they seem to make on shipping locations is inside
California, and outside California. While Finland falls into one of
those catagories, it might be worth while to check further.
