Looked at your operation. Great site. Solid e-commerce. Congrats.
(Alas, the rules here say you have to hide specifics about your situation on posts, so you should remove your site name.)
It's late afternoon in the US, so you might need to wait to get a response on this.
I would spend some time reading the posts in the Adwords column. You'll learn tons.

All of that said, many Adwords buyers prefer the third, fourth, or fifth position.

do you think adwords cost is going to be to high for it to work for me
My 2 cents: I worried at first that AW was going to be too high, also. But if your site converts the leads into sales, you'll find AW is very cheap indeed.
my keywords came back that it would cost me 0.96 to be top, not that i want to be,but i bet i'll be looking at at least 0.55 to be up there.
It's all about the conversion rate. I don't know what yours would be (or what you'd need it to be for profitability), but my suggestion is to start small. Experiment with the minimum bid. You might find it does the trick. I only have a small handful of keywords that I bid more than the minimum on.
And can a complete novice set up a successful adwords campaign?
Yes. But allow more learning time than you think (say, ten times as much), and be prepared to spend a bit of money learning the ropes. It'll be worth it.
