I am American, but I live in Japan. I have been searching for a particular T-Fal cooking pot with a particular type of glass lid that used to be available for sale in Japan, but is not any longer.

Doing a broad web search for it, I found it still for sale on Amazon UK. The company selling them even offers to ship to Japan. The problem is when I try to make an account I am blocked because of “suspicious activity.”

I think if I had an account, I would be able to use my own payment methods to buy it and have it shipped to me. Can anyone living in the UK help me?

    This.

    I’ve used the same login email having moved between 3 countries in each of the regional sites as well as US (.com) and ordered from 6 other different countries outside where I resided.

    Just login to .co.uk with the .com login details and you’ll be fine. Note however not all UK vendors will ship overseas.

      The vendor already indicated that they can ship to Japan from wherever they are. The issue was using the UK storefront. I’ll see if a Japanese account lets me buy it.
