They said they would get back to me when they come up with a solution.


Something similar happened to someone in another forum. He placed an order for the new Kindle Oasis via Amazon UK. A week later he receives an email from Amazon saying that the order has been cancelled because the delivery cannot be made. He spent like almost an hour chatting with a CS rep. but they weren’t able to help. I think he was from Norway.

Now I know that you can order a Kindle and have it shipped to an international address, however and if I’m not mistaken, this can only be done through Amazon.com (US). It’s very strange how he was able to place the order through Amazon UK in the first place though. It’s like Amazon cancelled the order when they were preparing it for shipment and they saw a non-UK address and had no idea what to do.
