I can always buy paper books with their U.S. price in Turkey or have them imported within two weeks without paying for postage or tax (Turkey doesn't have any tax on books anyway). Everyone of them. It is kinda strange that you can't do that in a English-speaking country.
What good will it do me if I can't use B&N books in Stanza? I need to purchase books from FW as I have been doing for 3+ years now, but the goddamn shop just doesn't want to take my money. Even through a VPN it complains to me about geographic restrictions. And I don't have any USA bank cards I could use.

I am totally lost now.
