NO. I AM NOT ASKING FOR DOWNLOAD LINKS.
Okay, with that out of the way...
I'm living in Sweden and was thinking of actually buying some of my favourite manga. What would be the easiest/smartest/best/cheapest way to do it? Just keep reading the scanlations and order directly from Japan? Order from other countries? Any tips on swedish places to buy manga? (Please no shops that only sells locally, as I live in the middle of nowhere...)

Amazon.co.uk has a rather good selection of manga and anime.
I've bought a bunch of series from them and while they will never be the cheapest option, you can at least save some money on shipping by ordering a bunch of stuff at once.
I'd say this qualifies for the easiest/best way of doing it. It would be some pretty deluxe service if you found something more convenient than their services. The customer service itself has been pretty nice as well, the few times I've had to contact them on something.
Just be sure to use the slower shipping method and grouped up shipments to keep the shipping costs at a reasonable level.
This advert was brought to you from Finland, your hard drinking neighbour.

Other than amazon.co.uk there's also bookdepository.com (free shipping, although individual volumes can be somewhat expensive) and rightstuf.com (usually cheaper if you buy a lot and during sales with the membership discount).

I have found adlibris.com/se and bookdepository.com to be the cheapest alternatives in Sweden for manga in English, for manga in Japanese use Honto.jp

eBay (.com or .co.uk since they might have different product listings) has a huge marketplace of people second-hand English manga cheaply, but I don't know how much shipping would actually be to your place.
