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.

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
