It has to do with publishing territories. They are not allowed to sell outside the US, except for certain titles. Most people get around it by putting some random US address for the shipping address. Since nothing is ever shipped...

You may get hung up on credit card authorization, in which case you may need to contact your card issuer and let them know you have an alterative authorized address in the US.

So far I haven't bought anything from B&N, but I have downlaoded several of their free books (which also need a US shipping address). Just google for the address of a hotel or something. I used the Hilton in Las Vegas as my address and now I can download the free books.
