Is there any way to get items (purchased ones) from say the U.S. based PSN store? They have so much more stuff than us and some of it I want.

I've created a 2nd account to access it but it seems unless you have a US registered street address for the credit card you can't buy anything. Does anyone know someway around that at all?

atm there is no way around this. but sony is bring out psn credit cards (like the itune ones), they current only sell them in japan, but once they released them worldwide, you should be able to buy them from like ebay or similar online places, and used that to purchased the context

Well thats just dumb then. Since its basically just a web link it makes NO SENSE why we don't have the same shite as the US stores. Infact all stores should be the same. Apparently GT5 prologue is now available on the HK store or something. Don't know if it's an english version however.

Oh wells, guess its time to call the Canadian Mother-in-Law and get her credit card details so I can get what I want. :)

ARGH DON'T SAY THERE IS NO CURRENT WAY TO PURCHASE FROM THE US STORE!!

I will let you know how to do it right now. It is the same method I use. After you have set up a US account and you try adding your credit card details you run into the problem of your credit card address not matching your address on your US account. So how do I get around this whole "checking the mail address on the credit card" thing, Well it is rather simple. Head down to your local Westpac bank walk upto the counter and say "I would like to purchase a Mastercard Gift Card Please". Put whatever amount of money you want on this gift card and use the Mastercard Gift Card to as your credit card on the US Store. There is a $4.95 setup on the gift card so I would recommand putting $100 on the card just so it lasts you a little while. Being a Gift Card Credit Card there is no address on the card for the store to have to confirm and therefor you are set.

Here is a link to the Mastercard Gift Card on the westpac website. http://www.westpac.com.au/internet/publish...c%20gift%20card

this may be old news but we've been using US PSN cards from gaminglue.com for all our us downloads.

Yeah old post but another way to do it (as per the whirlpool forums) is create a new user account on your PS3 using the American PSN store with an American address (use US white pages) or make a fake one.

Create an Entropay account (google entropay) using the same fake American address but use your real address and credit card number.

Add funds to your entropay account (virtual visa card) and then purchase on the US PSN account using the entropay visa card.

yeah use ENTROPAY thats how i got my dlc for rockband.

As did I (thank god it is all still compatible with Rockband 2), until late last year.

Doesn't really matter as all DLC for Rockband & GH:WT is available in Aus about 2 days after it is available in the US.

Just wondering if anyone here is able to buy stuff from the US store currently.

It has been a while so I figure that someone may have found a way to do it?

(stupid Aus DLC does not work with US games and vice versa)

And before someone screams Entropay. It does not work.

      Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.

      I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.

      I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.

      I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet

      Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
