    I want to purchase two copies of the upgrade from Parallels 9 to Parallels 10. I click the link for the USD$49.99 upgrade, then go to the store site, where it wants to charge me 49.99 Euros. Ok, I'm using a VPN with a server in Serbia (US servers are currently blocked). I can switch the currency to dollars, but the upgrade pricing is about $65 based on the exchange rate. Sigh. Kill the VPN, and now I can't read Chinese or switch the language back to English. If I thought the upgrade pricing would be 99.99 RMB, then I would ask a Chinese friend to help me. Although I doubt that would work, because I have a US credit card with a US address.

    Geolocation sucks donkey testicles, but it's here, so is there a workaround?

    Kudos to Parallels store for allowing VPN; I can't purchase anything from Microsoft or anyone else that uses digitalriver.

    This is like, literally the first time I've not jumped into a Parallels upgrade, ever since the Intel Mac was released.
