Do you live in the European Union?

Since Brexit, I’m unfortunately unable to sell products, including digital ebooks, to customers who provide a physical address within the European Union in the checkout process. You will need a correct physical address for processing credit/debit card payments. I hear that PayPal is more flexible, though!
