Shopping US website...

.... That is having a sale and I really want to buy but it's not letting me due to not being in the us/ credit card not is based. Any one found a way around this?

Thanks in advance!

Sometimes if you use the online live chat you can negotiate with them. Even phoning their customer service will work.

It can be got around with a bit of effort. Invariably if you explain the situation they are happy to help. We've ordered stuff before and had it waiting for us when we arrive in country from websites that sell clothes, dogs stuff even crocs!

Sometimes it is easier when you are in country.

Well we tried so much. My husband is a tech genius so by all intents and purposes we "were in the USA" if you know what I mean. Didn't work.

I have an American accent from school so I called and zero luck. I pointed out how I was trying to place a big order and give them my money! The service rep was upset that it couldn't be done too. But no foreign credit cards accepted. Sigh.

Finally I asked if I could pay with Canadian credit card and he said yes! So I borrowed my dad's card from back when he was stationed in Canada. Still had to call to make it happen as the website doesn't take Canadian credit cards.

I'm just happy to get my crocs! Got wedges that are 79€ here for 30$.
