He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to purchase via the internet, where I send the amount and the goods arrive after a week or two? Is this sale valid?

Do you wait until the goods arrive and buy from them, or do you travel and buy from whoever has them and bring them in? Yes.
