Over seas purchase

[brucet]

I'm currently in Australia and tried to make a purchase online. BnN won't let me and tell me I need to be physicaly in the USA to make a purchase. Does anyone know how to make a purchase while overseas.

If the credit card on your B&N account does have a U.S. address, then the only way their website could know you're overseas is by your IP address. You can test that hypothesis and possibly succeed in making a purchase by using a U.S. proxy service. Search Google for U.S. proxy and you'll find hundreds. (Some of the results will be lists of proxy server IPs. That's not what you want. You're looking for an online proxy like Proxify. I'm not mentioning that one to recommend it, only to help distinguish the kind of thing you're looking for.)

I hope this helps.
