Problem for me is that some of my favorite authors is available only in US.

I did all the workarounds mentioned in this thread, and for a while it worked out fine. I've managed to buy a couple of my favorite authors and grab a few interesting freebies (I really can do without the freebies, and I'm willing to pay for my favorites..) before they shot the door, telling me there was a problem: "please contact us or change your country to complete your purchase.
You attempted to purchase an item while in a different country than listed on your Amazon account.
Are you traveling outside your country?"

My Kindle is of cause set to my US address.

My US address is just a random address found on the net. Don't know if it'll change anything to get af Jetcarrier address?

Looks like they are doing some kind of filtering either on credit card, address checks or IP

Any one else who has had similar experiences?
