As far as I am aware, my Canadian address is confirmed. I think the definition 
is that it must be the same as the billing address for a credit card, if that's 
the source of the funds.

Love to be able to take advantage of this (my 
buddy just got another 30D, and we're both 
curious as to my OM lenses on his bodies), but 
unfortunately, the seller in China only takes 
"confirmed" ePay addresses (or the risible 
options of Western Union or bank wire transfer).

What are "confirmed" ePay addresses, you might ask?

Why, that's simple.  A "confirmed" ePay address 
is simply ePay's euphemism for a *United States* 
address.  If you're anywhere else on the planet 
and you want one of these jobbies, you're 
basically SOL.  There appear to be a few 
exceptions to this "confirmed address" rule, but 
they're statistically insignificant.  "Plus ça 
change, plus c'est la même chose."
