I got this same bullshit this afternoon.... I then signed up for an account registered to a US Parcel Service which is located 45 mins away only to be denied at the check out due to a Canadian PayPal account.

I'm now in the process of finding another loop hole, as a friend of mine might have this same US address setup to his credit card.

WOW! Thats frikkin stupid on what HTS did. Back during the summer when the Comicon exclusives went up, I was able to order and pay with my Paypal account. After JaySmith posted it didn't work for him, I went and tried ordering a DragStrip and I got the error about the non-us address for my Paypal account. This really bites that they changed this now, yet they haven't setup anything to ship to Canada.

Funny thing is when I use my VISA, I get right to the very end of the check out.... I just want to confirm with the US Parcel company first that it's alright to have two items shipped to their place of business even though it won't be until December.

Once I get the go ahead, then I'll follow through with the rest of the check out, and hopefully have my order placed for 1 Dragstrip, and 1 Overkill.

Re: Possible Solution for HTS Exclsuive Special editions.

I've used my Visa a few times at HTS using a US address just south of the border from me. I even put in my billing address as the same addy since it doesnt allow me to put my Canadian addy in. Never had a problem with the transactions. It does ask for the 3 or 4 digit code on the back of the card, so I can only guess thats how the card is allowed.

It's technically part of the US and therefore also under the jurisdiction of the USPS wile Canada & Mexico are foreign independent countries.

Good to know. Maybe tomorrow I'll try placing an order then for 2x Dragstrip, and 2x Overkill.

Hey, let us know if it works JaySmith. I tried to put the billing address with the same shipping address before, but they said the credit card didn't go through... don't know why some people here say it works...
