    If not maybe I'll try, you never know they might only care about the ID stuff if you bring attention to it...

    I didn't pretend to be American. I pay the membership as International with AU credit card. I have a valid US mailing address at www.usa2me.com looks like this:

    [My full name]
    [My individual post box number] Hazelhurst Dr. #7377
    Houston, TX 77043



    So if I want to buy any US only stuff, I can let them send to this address and the usa2me will forward to me.

    Theoretically this will be cheaper than discouraging TFCC shipping option.

    Dammed if I'm sending them a photocopy of my CC and ID.
    That practice has lead to ID fraud in the past (and as such was banned here, so I'm told. you would think it would be banned there too...)
    I have an aussie issued Credit card and even though it doesn't go through the web, I just emailed them and told them of the problem and they can do something on their end to make it work. You dont have to email them your credit card number or anything. It just means more work for them as they have to fix it p themselves, but that is part of the job when running a business. They accept payments by CC, so they have to have ways of making them work.

    i joined in mid december, so i could get punch and dion. I've gotten no message from them stating that i need to send them a copy of my card or any other id, the transaction went though properly.

    I'll wait for Punch to be released before i can comment on shipping costs though.

    WOFTAM stands for Waste Of <expletive> Time And Money. It predates the internet, you young whippersnapper!

    I assume you already know what OTFCC stands for.

    The Z doesn't stand for anything old timer (:P). It originated as a typo from people attempting to hit the Shift key with the left hand when typing "OMG." However now it's commonplace for people to pronounce the Z in real life speech (i.e. "Zoh my God!")

    No pun intended. Nor delivered.

    Thanks gok. Now I am chronological flux as I am a Whippersnapper and an old timer all at once....

    I do agree though, OFTCC (I DO know that one) is WOFTAM.
