OK, I was going to put this into the Gamestop preorder thread, but I'll ask here.
My situation is this - I live in Europe, my brother is living in the States. I don't want to ask my brother to go hunting for a PS3 for me at launch, and I don't want to ask him to go find a Gamestop and buy some stuff so he can trade it in for a preorder next week either. However, I've been thinking of another option - online preorders with places like Amazon etc, when they become available.
Here's my question - with sites like Amazon, can I purchase something here from Europe with my European billing address etc., but have the item shipped to a US address (i.e. my brother)? Amazon.com obviously won't ship games or game systems here to Europe, but will they allow a European to purchase something and have it shipped within the US? Kind of like a gift?
