Default Buying my first bow by mail...

OK, I have read enough to know how much I don't know.

I have decided to buy a recurve of low draw weight (25-30 lbs) to learn to shoot and the plan is to move up to a hunting bow (maybe) before next season.

Since I cannot find much help locally...(all the shops are compound focused)...I am thinking can I buy through the mail? If I order a bow I assume the shop will also sell me a bow, a string, a stringer, a tab, a target, and arrows...

How necessary will it be to tune my arrows...will a good shop be able to sell me arrows that are adequate for shooting at targets without tuning?

Must I worry about brace height or will following the mfg recommendations be good enough?

I was hoping to keep this simple and fun but the more I learn the more complex it becomes.
