I can't buy Garry's Mod using my Steam Wallet money
I'm on a trip in California, I live in Montreal, Canada (Where they don't sell steam cards). I came here, bought and activated my card (it was authorized) and added GMOD to my cart.

It asked me to enter my address (which I though is stupid.) I entered my credentials as my Canada address, but this popped up:

"The current payment method does not match the country of the store. The cart has been converted and the updated total will show on the next page. You may also review your cart here, or change your payment method below."

I don't understand what to do and I swear to God, If Steam screwed this up to make me ineligible to buy GMOD with money I spent on their merchandise, I will flip. And will contact my lawyer. And see to it that Steam's owner dies a horrible death.

Seriously, help me.

You own a Canadian Steam account and cannot buy anything as long as you are in California.

You could contact Steam Support and ask them to change things for you.
