I have personally never come across an instance where consideration of circumventing geographical restrictions has even come to mind.
I've never been so fixated on wanting a particular book that I couldn't wait for availability or an acceptable price in order to get it. I would just move on and choose something else from the literally millions of great books out there that are readily available.
I often read about 3-4 books a week. I have a good 300 books on my personal wish list of books that I don't yet own, at least 60 on my "future releases" wish list, probably 1,000 or so that I already own on my TBR list. I'm sure I'll never run out of the next best choice available at an acceptable price or free from any of my 3 library accounts, Amazon, Sony's Reader Store, Project Gutenberg, ManyBooks.net, mobileread, or a myriad of other providers.
For me, there is just no good enough reason or interest to take that route.
Too many books ... too short a life span.
