amazon is the best place imo (never bought anything online.. but if i ever were to buy something online, that's where i'd start)
but shipping to mauritius is a really unusual problem..
so after googling for a bit i found this

"Amazon and Ebay as already mentioned only deliver some things to Mauritius. One way around this is to set up a MyUS account - http://www.myus.com/, you pay an annual subscription to have a US address, you can then use (when available) the Amazon free delivery or low cost delivery to that address. MyUS then forward the package to you in Mauritius, I use the DHL option which is not cheap but DHL with them is much less expensive than using DHL as an individual because you get the advantage of the MyUS rates with DHL. I have been using this service without any problems for several years and you get the items in about 3 days from when it leaves the USA. Excellent service for things you just must have and cannot get in Mauritius. "

seems like a good idea .. hope it's not too expensive

I dunno.. are minors allowed to make online purchases in the first place? Or is there really a minimum age for credit cards? And if there is, shouldn't you be discussing with your parents about online purchases/for their credit card?

Otherwise, i have some other ideas
-Mauritius Bank seems to have some sort of prepaid cards.. not sure what are they or if you can buy but..

-Maybe there's a similar service for paypal -> visa/mastercard/etc somewhere... Might be worth to research google for "Virtual Credit Cards", there seems to be many of them, and you should look for one that allows paypal

-Contact amazon/myus support.. they might have even better ideas since hej it's their job

i suggest you to buy on amazon and use free us shipping addresses. They receive your order on your behalf and reship your products within few business days. I recomend some companies to you like ship it to or https://globalshopaholics.com/
