Well, I just found out B&H is the same way. Apparently, I can not buy from
them because my cel-phone number does not show my PO Box in the reverse
directory lookup. Can't charge it to the street address because that is not
my Visa billing address, besides there is no landline there. Of course, I
could send them a money order, but I guess I will just give someone else my
little bit of business.

Ciao,
