Hello everybody, I am having a lot of frustration with trying to purchase books for my kindle through the Amazon.com website from my PC, please see below my email to Amazon:

Hello, First up let me state that I know this is not Amazon's problem, but nonetheless this is a problem that I currently face and begs the question as to why I purchased a kindle in the first place. Please find below a summary of my experience on Amazon.com with the top ten books:

This title is not available for customers from your location in:
Africa
1. The Confession: A Novel [Kindle Edition] - Not available
2. Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption [Kindle Edition] - Not available
3. Decision Points [Kindle Edition] - Not available
4. Cross Fire [Kindle Edition] - Not available
5. The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest [Kindle Edition] - Not available
6. Port Mortuary [Kindle Edition] - Not available
7. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo [Kindle Edition] - Not available
8. Mahjong Solitaire (A Matching Game for Kindle) - Not available
9. The Girl Who Played with Fire [Kindle Edition] - Not available
10. Hell's Corner [Kindle Edition] - Not available

This is patently ridiculous, instead of your usual response, please be so kind as to forward me email addresses for these publishers in order that I can ask them directly about their crazy policies. This situation needs to be addressed.
Regards
Paul
If I browse via kindle the picture is somewhat different admittedly but why on earth should there be a 100% failure rate for the top ten when trying to buy through the PC?
Cheers
Paul
