Laura and Justin from the USA need your help to get their musical comedy satisfaction:
We are big fans of the Australian musician/comedian Tim Minchin; we have purchased the only one of his albums that is available in the US, and we have even been lucky enough to see him in concert. However, most of his CDs and DVDs are available for purchase only to those who have a UK e-mail address.
Helen and Olly, please answer us this: Do you know of any buying clubs or exchanges where British folks can purchase and ship items to Americans that we can’t get here, and vice versa? And if not, do you have any ideas on how we could set up such an arrangement? We would be happy to buy and ship anything to the UK in exchange for a Tim Minchin fix!
Hold on, readers – don’t take advantage of their peachy-keen offer to ship ANYTHING to the UK, I outright forbid you to co-opt Laura and Justin into your international drug/exotic animal/firearms trading empire.
If, however, you can help them out with the name of any copyright-swerving buying clubs, or if you yourself have been hankering for something only available in the US which is of roughly equivalent value to a Tim Minchin CD, go to the comments and let’s get this mutual back-scratching started.

Simply set up an amazon account on the amazon.co.uk site with your US email, postcode, credit card number etcetera, and log into that buying whatever takes your fancy. (Including the magic that is Tim minchin) I do this all the time with books that American publishing houses simply refuse to publish.
