Is it possible to buy with a swiss credit card providing I provide a US adress?
Any help will be appreciated.
Welcome to the forum.

Your best bet is to learn how to use convertlit and calibre and you can buy ebooks from Fictionwise. Search here there are many threads on doing this. I think too you will find more of a selection and better prices at fictionwise than you will on the Sony ebook store.

That said, I think you will need a US card and address to buy at the sony store. However, I have bought gift cards for several members here and they are able to then use the Sony ebook store. However, I think they still had to use a US address when they registered there Account/Software... not 100% sure on that one.
