Just out of curiosity, did your two amazon accounts also share the same credit card?
I only ask because a German friend of mine, who lives here in France, insists that amazon.co.uk won't ship English language books to her here in France because she uses her German based credit card for the account, and so she has to use amazon.de and have the books shipped to a family member living in Germany.
This seems weird, though it's possible they are tightening up their accounts due to the Kindle store in the UK now. But I've got a single account for amazon in the US, UK, France and Germany. I do have three different credit cards - one each from the US, UK and France - and when I go to check out, they normally have the credit card from the appropriate country as the default. But I've bought books from Amazon Germany (in German) and received them here in France, paying with my French credit card.
