Hey there. Im from Irelad and was in a similar situation. But i ordered off ebay and the game is on the way. Not the first game i will get from the US and the rest all worked so an American game should work on your system(if it has the proper requirements lol). As fort he credit card thing then yeah it automatically converts pounds to dollars. It does with euros anyway. Hope this helps.

I'm in the UK and bought my copy via digital download with a debit card. I don't think its available in shops over here (which seems really dumb since its clearly a AAA standard game).

I bought my copy from Totalgaming.net, getting both a digital download and the Collector's Edition box set for $45, + $10 dollar shipping to the UK. The dollar is very weak against the pound at the moment, meaning that this is excellent value for those of us in the UK (a Special Edition of a brand new game shipped for less than £30). The boxed set took a couple of weeks to arrive, but I was able to play straight away with the download via Stardock.

Do be very careful if you choose to do that. Often any genuine used copies will have had their serials already registered, so you won't be able to get updates or play on ICO unless the seller also hands over his accounts. Counterfeit "foreign import" versions are common on ebay as well, though thankfully I've not seen that yet with Sins specifically.
