Today he unregistered the Nook and registered successfully with the UK Nook site but it still won't let him buy books (he was trying to buy books from the UK Nook site). Any advice would be appreciated as he is now planning on sending me the Nook back to me tomorrow and really want to resolve this issue. Many thanks in anticipation.

I don't know for the UK (should be the same though).
But my situation:
Bought the Nook Simple Touch, Nook HD and Nook HD+ from the US.
Live in Germany and have a German credit card.
All Nooks are registered to B&N US.
I have to use VPN, to simulate a US IP address.
Then I can buy on the B&N website, even though I'm using a German credit card. I've linked it to a US billing address though. IN my case, the US subsidiary of my employer.
I haven't found a way to use VPN on the Nook itself, so I'm buying via the B&N website.
