The last few times I've tried to buy something from them in september with my creditcard and land set to US I get this message: The only thing in red is my address and the only invalid thing there is the country. When I changed it to Norway and bought some ebooks without geografic restrictions then it went through without problems. Anyone else had the same problems?
They now check if the address is a valid USA address (when using USA as your country). Just use a valid USA address (look one up on Google), instead of your Norwegian address, and you can still use your creditcard to pay for the books (they still do not check your address at the creditcard company).
This works fine with my Dutch Visa card.
