So, I want to buy the harry potter books at pottermore.

I am in canada, the 'buy now' button for the English (US) version is greyed out.

I have to buy the English (UK) version, which makes no sense from a location pov. I do not want the UK version.

How can I buy the US version? If I use a US proxy, I can get the US version, but not sure how safe that would be.

I did find a free ssl proxy servers and services - it looks like all is well (get the ssl lock when checking out), but I just don't know if this would be a good idea.

Thoughts?
