With regard to the issue you refer to as your being "foreign", from what I can tell from your Profile, you live in France. On that basis, you have to understand that authors only license certain territorial rights to certain publishers. It would be great if U.S. publishers could obtain "World" rights in all of our books, but we can't. If there are separate U.S. and U.K. editions of the book. the U.K. publisher usually gets the European rights. Therefore, the U.S. publisher is legally prohibited from selling to customers in those countries. We have to pass that limitation on to our customers and suppliers. (Yes, some online bookstores and ebook sellers will sell to customers outside of the authorized territories. By doing so, they are committing copyright infringement, and opening themselves up to lawsuits by the rights holders.)
