Apparently they must be able to tell from my IP address that I am currently overseas. I have tried to purchase books and apps, and everything has been cancelled. B&N have not replied to my email saying I live both in USA and New Zealand. I'm really ticked off about this as I purchased the Nook Colour in-store at B&N in Orange, California, as it was highly rated in Consumer Reports. No one said that it wouldn't do me any good overseas!
Unfortunately, it's only possible to purchase via a VPN roundabout. You can ask someone in the US to do it for you if it's easier, since downloads are not dependent on the country, just at point of purchase.
