If they're selling in that country, it's their responsibility to know that their goods are legal. It's not the buyer's responsibility to confirm that a store is stocked with legal goods. I certainly don't go to a bookstore and research every potential purchase to find out if it's not violating copyright.
That digital content sales are considered to happen in the country of the buyer is ridiculous--but because of that, FW should be turning *off* sales to any country they don't know they have the right to sell in.
