Thanks for the info ...
I do know, that the app store detection is based upon your one-click default payment address. If it's set to a US address, you're fine. A canadian one, and you're dinged. I know this because I had her card on my account for a while, and having hers as the default would generate the 'YOU BAD PERSON, YOU'RE NOT IN THE US' error, but changing 1-click to MY us-based card, seconds later, allowed app purchases...even from Nova Scotia. Conversely, having her card set while trying a purchase IN the US generated the error.
