1. Instead of using the internet, why not try your local bookstore? Most Borders or Barnes & Noble will have a spiritual/alternative religion section, which sell both the Tarot Cards and the book that goes with them. This was my first deck - http://www.amazon.com/Sacred-Circle-Tarot-Celtic-Journey/dp/156718457X Which I bought from a bookstore, and have loved for quite a while. It also comes with a book, which is very helpful.
2. Ebay. I've gotten quite a few decks off of ebay. Make sure you know the cost new, and watch for shipping charges, but if you stick with it and don't get anxious you should be able to pick up a like new deck for $10 including shipping. I'd stick with a Rider-Waite or something similar. Many books use the symbology from that deck. A Tarot deck should have 78 cards. I have never had any trouble using a used deck. When I receive it I reorder the deck to make sure all the cards are there, and that's it.
3. amazon.com is a great place to buy deck and books have a look here http://www.aeclectic.net/tarot/cards/ to see what sort of deck you might like, the site includes reviews. I suggest you choose a deck with fully illustrated cards and has a theme that you are already familiar with or have a deep interest in.
