@katblu, @DaveInSoCal yeah this is only for the billing address. Would be nice if I could just use Canadian billing address? I will ship it to the US. Any help would be awesome.
@Keno The billing address needs to be a US address.
Sometimes freight forwarders will provide a card with a US address to use but I've also seen some people have success with prepaid visa cards. If you've got a good bribe accepting friend in the US that's the best way to go.
@fruitpunchben Uhhh this might not work. It might have allowed the purchase to go through on the site but I wouldn't be surprised if our payment processing system rejects it along the way. Even if it does manage to go through we still won't be shipping outside of the US. Sorry aboot that.
@JonT uhhh read the question properly. he was asking how to pay with a Canadian credit card and billing address, not to ship to Canada. I'm not an idiot, obviously you're not going to just accidentally ship it across the border. I have a US postal address, just not a US credit card. Now I can use my Canadian credit card and get my meh stuff sent to my US address, just like 99% of the other shopping places on the web
You can just put whatever address you want for the billing address. Some sites just say no to a fake billing address but I believe meh is not one of them.
@JasonKim well I couldn't. The zip code at least needs to match your credit card. Before it did, the order wouldn't go through for me. When I used the instructions I posted above, it did work
I've had success putting my Danish address as billing address pretty much. The shipping address is a friends address. Whenever I need the things I bought, I'll get him to package it up, and give him some money for shipping, and he'll send it with the cheapest and slowest method to Denmark available.
With that said, last time we got a package to Denmark, we used USPS' cheapest method - they promised 6-10 day delivery, but really, it was delivered in 3 days...

@katblue I don't think @keno is asking about shipping to Canada, just billing. Maybe @JonT can help, unless @studerc screws it up.
@DaveInSoCal: ♪You may be right, I may be crazy.♪
@katblue But it just might be a luuunatic you're looking for!
I would assume it's possible, as presumably all the Korean orders don't have US billing addresses either.
@Starblind Actually many Korean card companies let customers to change their billing address to foreign locations for people travelling

Canadians have credit cards?
You learn something new every day!
@Keno: maybe you could talk North Dakota out of their meh privileges. They don't seem to need them.
@keno: I actually figured this out for you.
Put your billing address as your US mailing address.
For the zip code, take the 3 numbers in your Canadian postal code, and then add 2 zeros on the end. If that is not a valid US zip code, change the last zero to a 1, and check again. For example my postal code is A3B2C1 so I did 32102 (32100 and 32101 are not valid zip codes). As soon as I did this, my meh order went through.

@Ignorant When did Bieber go blonde?

@JasonKim False. Our system does make sure the address matches what's on file for the card. Just FYI. ;)

Switch to paperless and then you can set the "billing address" to anything your credit card company allows.
