I cannot order a photo book which I made in Photos

I am desperate! It took me over a month of hard work to make a photo book which was supposed to be a Christmas present. When I finished with relief and clicked on Buy Book and Add shipping address, I put a German address and a message comes, Unsupported Country, Orders must be shipped within your billing country. When I put my address in the Czech Republic, I get a message Unsupported location, Orders cannot be shipped to this location. I find this rather unfair. Apple sell products in my country but do not deliver prints. Another strange thing is, why cannot billing address and shipping address be different? In the past I did manage to have photo books delivered to Holland (our second home) and also to Germany, but now I cannot make it any more. Any suggestion?
