Amazon postage is prohibitively expensive for those outside the US (except perhaps for those who live in another country where Amazon is based?) The only time I'd ever use Amazon is if I'm after an old rare book which is out of print and Amazon is the only place I can find a second hand copy. And in those times I'd actually be deliberately searching for it, checking many sites in my browser, not casually using Unity!

We only query amazon if you are in a country that has a local amazon store.

According to Wikipedia, Amazon has national sites covering North America, most of Europe, Brazil, Japan & China. That's a pretty substantial slice of the world's population.

Only a handful of European countries: Germany, UK, France, Italy I think. That's 15.2% of Europe by area.

But probably rather more by population. Also, I'd guess that at least some of the other countries get reasonably cheap shipping from those sites.

If you ever need anything that can be sourced from German Amazon, poke me and I'll get it for you and mail it on. I'm Kliment on freenode IRC.
