There is only one Beautiful Britain...
But it is reproduced in mirror sites all over the world. Choose a country's flag to explore the store locally; and enjoy the browsing!
Changing the root URL
On my blog, I regularly recommend that people change the root URL. For those unsure what I mean, it's the first element of the web address in your browser. Usually for blog entries that's www.zazzle.com, but you may prefer to change it to, say, the UK version instead. That would be www.zazzle.co.uk. See where the 'com' turned into a 'co.uk'? And, as the flags above will attest, there are many more endings with which to amend the root URL.
What if it's a product?
It's no different to changing the home page. You still look at the first element and alter the ending. For example, say that the product that you're looking at is this one:
http://www.zazzle.com/sycharth_in_powys_wales_during_autumn_equinox_canvas-192045739201999005
http://www.zazzle.com/sycharth_in_powys_wales_during_autumn_equinox_canvas-192045739201999005
You merely have to take the bit that's in bold and change it to your local Zazzle store's ending. The rest stays the same throughout every international mirror site. So if you wanted to see the same thing in, say, Spanish, you would render the URL like this:
http://www.zazzle.es/sycharth_in_powys_wales_during_autumn_equinox_canvas-192045739201999005

Why change the root URL?
It potentially saves you money! It costs more to ship anything from another country, than to send it from your home depot. Plus there may be duty or customs tax to be paid on imported items. All of this depends upon the treaties between your nation and the one where the Zazzle store is held.
Why pay more, when you can have exactly the same thing from your own country? It's all just a little tip to save you a bit of cash.

When will you add more countries?
Unfortunately you will have to take that up with Zazzle itself. I've already included every nation on their list, though I really would love for there to be more. I will watch that space. If and when more countries are added, you will see them appear here too.
