where to buy a raspberry Pi?

Don't forget eBay. I have 2 PIs - one bought locally and one for a
better price on eBay and both work fine. HDMI cables, cases, etc are
certainly cheaper on eBay. For example, I bought cases for about 10
shekels and a 2 meter HDMI cable costs about 6 shekels.

You really don't need a "kit" unless you're referring to add ons to
run electronics experiments, robots, etc. The basic setup only
requires the PI, HDMI cable, charger, cat5 cable, microSD card and the
downloadable NOOBS installation software. 

Depending on whether you'll run it "headless" or not, you may also need
a keyboard, mouse and monitor. You could also use those for one-time
setup and then go "headless" - connect over a VPN or ssh.
