I'm coming away from this account with two reactions. The first is that you have to know when to give up. Some battles aren't worth fighting. The fourth part of a fan-fiction story? Better to move on early.

The second is that I don't think you can ever count on being able to buy future works. Sometimes the work never happens. In this case, it happened but not for you because of geo-restrictions. So it goes. I don't see why Amazon has an obligation to you and you really can't expect them to violate those restrictions.

All of that said, I understand how infuriating this has been. I've found myself in similar situations and the battle itself can take over. Amazon's only real failure, however, was not being able to diagnose the problem early, instead of validating your impression that you were entitled to buy the story.
