Nope, the way it is supposed to work is that someone with a address in a country sees the range of books allowed for that country which should be the same as shown by a local Amazon if such exists.

Thus a Swedish resident must use Amazon.com and pay in US dollars but a German resident can use either Amazon.com and pay in US dollars OR Amazon.de (German language) and pay in Euros. The books available should be identical but may miss some available to US residents and add some not available to US residents.

Errors of course may occur.
