Well, it works for me. I can't provide a link, of course, because you can't access my account, but I selected the PRS-600, checked out, it asked for an address, I selected my Spanish address, Spanish Credit Card, it converted the price to euros automatically, put in the 39E for shipping, with a note that I might get charged for VAT when it arrived. If you have an account, you should try it yourself at Amazon.com. Now that I look at this, it says that the PRS-600 will be shipped from "Ace Photo Digital Storefront". Amazon works with other retailers for lots of things. (I just tried this again, and it says that a second PRS-600 in my shopping basket is from "Crutchfield").

I don't know if the fact that I originally opened my Amazon account when I was in the US changes anything, but I have an EU address and EU credit card.

EDIT: So, basically, no, "Amazon" itself doesn't ship to Europe, but you can buy one through Amazon and get is shipped to Europe. Is that difference an issue for your friend?
