Question Buying on the internet

Ok, I live in the UK and I want to buy something from the web. The internet site has the price of the item I want to purchase as

$52.00 in US dollers and
£36.47 in UK pounds


I looked at the exchange rate today, and I wanted to see how many pounds 52 dollers would be, and I got 27.63 pounds.


52.00 USD = 27.6286 GBP
United States Dollars United Kingdom Pounds
1 USD = 0.531318 GBP 1 GBP = 1.88211 USD

I want to purchase this item using my switch or credit card. And I would like to know even though I live in the UK can I still purchase my item in dollers as it looks like it works out a little cheaper. I also wanted to know if there are any hidden charges and if I do buy the item at $52.00 dollers will £27.63 pounds will be taken out of my account. Any help would be great.
