have you tried buying recently?

seems MS has blocked that access as well... hmm.gif

try multiple cards on my Xbox last night, region set to Argentina, all failed cry.gif
Sekiro is damn cheap at RM60 after conversion

too bad almost all of the argentina gift cards sold online are heavily marked up

are you paying CC directly or go through PayPal?

paypal only available for selected countries like US

Argentina only option is CC & reward cards sad.gif

you can save the card details with Argentina address, CC number verified
just can't go thru the payment, some "crossregionpayment" error message sad.gif

ah probably they started blocking, so that user wont abuse it this way. maybe have to buy gift card ?

no point buying the gift cards also, either it's out of stock or heavily marked up

guess the only way is to have a local Argentinian to help out

well there is another way, thats to use VPN. set it up on PC, buy them through xbox.com (Argentina region)

i guess buying from Argentina store is more of a hit or miss thing? or just need to wait between purchases?
