IS anybody else (international Customers) having this trouble? Did Barnes & Noble made a change to their website to block these buys?
I'm in a Mac using Hotspot shield ( latest version) and my brother is using his PC and no go in either one.

Any suggestion/alternatives or are we screwed? Hope this is not the case. Been enjoying ebooks and I hope I don't have to limit myself to free ebooks.
My experience:
The first 2 or 3 orders go through.
Then, after some time, they tell me there have been problems in processing my order.
I guess, it's my German credit card linked to my US address instead of the original German billing address.
Strange enough: Although they claim problems in processing my order, it still goes through.
But after that message I stop for a day.
Next day the very same: "Problems in processing the order" for the ca. 4th book...
