Hello there and thank you for your greetings! Hello Dimitri! I understand about the option the third party sellers have for international shipping but I only order from third party sellers who specify international shipping. Why would any seller state in their description that they ship internationally and choose not to? I don't get it. The problem I am having with placing an order is with all the third party sellers who ship internationally and not just a selected few, and from all of Amazon's world websites and their third party sellers. Unfortunately I can only purchase stuff from amazon.com. I feel like I am being blackmailed to purchase only from amazon.com and nobody else. Just to experiment, I temporarily edited the country on my shipping address from Greece to Italy, Germany, etc. and having done that seems to be no problem. I can place my order. By the way, this is the message I get when I use my correct shipping address in Greece and are trying to place an order.
"We're sorry. This item can't be shipped to your selected destination. You may either change the shipping address or delete the item from your order by changing its quantity to 0 and clicking the update button below."

To use Marketplace Payments by Amazon to make a purchase from an independent seller, you must be located in a country covered by the Marketplace Payments by Amazon program. This coverage is steadily increasing and has already been extended to 29 countries. Please note: if your country is not yet covered, you cannot make a Marketplace purchase.
Until your country is covered by Marketplace Payments by Amazon, you may want to purchase the item directly from Amazon.com.
The following countries are currently covered by Marketplace Payments by Amazon: Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales), and the United States (including U.S. protectorates).
Rest assured that the list of countries covered by Marketplace Payments by Amazon will expand in the future.
I wasn't aware of these country restrictions. Very interesting. Having residents of some countries in Europe being excluded from purchasing from Amazon's third party sellers where as other countries in Europe are not, is utterly ridiculous! It's Amazon's loss really.

Actually, amazon.co.uk has a similar policy. I don't know if they allow shipments to Greece, but Austria is also not on their list. The same goes for amazon.fr, IRC.
As far as I know and from personal experience, no Amazon website anywhere ships items purchased from third party sellers to Greece.

Try to use this gadget http://amazon-ship-to.blogspot.com to check if Amazon item could be shipped to your country.
Thanks for the tip Alex but nothing has changed. The only seller I can order from is still amazon.com. No marketplace purchases.
I tried some FSM titles and MIDNITE MOVIES titles and the same dreaded message comes up.
'We're sorry. This item can't be shipped to your selected destination. You may either change the shipping address or delete the item from your order by changing its quantity to 0 and clicking the update button below.'
"The following countries are currently supported: Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales), and the United States (including U.S. protectorates).
Rest assured that the list of supported countries will expand in the future."
Yeah right!
Everything is explained here. A lot of double standard nonsense.

I don't understand why that is since it seems that I can never purchase items from Amazon third party sellers who advertise on Amazon but only items sold directly from amazon.com. The cd soundtracks sold by amazon.com are almost always more expensive than the ones sold by some third party sellers and many times their selection is quite limited. What I usually do when I want a cd soundtrack bad enough is I contact the seller and ask if they could ship the item I am interested outside Amazon. Sometimes I get lucky but it's a pain to do that every time and it feels a bit degrading. I have contacted Amazon but they are useless and of no help. I keep going around in circles. Could anyone in this forum help me out please. Any advice? Am I doing something wrong? Does anyone from Greece or any other country have problems ordering from Amazon third party sellers or Amazon in general? Thanks in advance! By the way, I have been looking at this website on and off for some time now. I decided to join. Great forum! Sincerely, Sotiris
