Take a look at FastSpring. Global coverage for developer clients, their end users, payment methods/currencies located all around the world, and an embedded store SDK used to power such app stores as Adobe's new Exchange. Pricing includes international payment costs, int'l tax management, pci compliance, chargeback fees, file hosting, unlimited support, and all the merchandising functionality. Developers save months to years of work because it's an all-in-one service, the features are already there for the developer selling one time or recurring based payment products and services globally.

FastSpring and SaaSy handle global tax collection, payment, etc. for desktop software, SaaS, and downloadable gaming companies.

Perhaps FastSpring would be a good fit for you. Any country the US isn't banned from doing business with is applicable. Users pay in various global currencies and the order pages are translated. I'm the CEO. Funny that you mention Venezuela, my wife just got a grant to do art history research there so I may be visiting soon.

When you use a full-service e-commerce service that serves as a reseller and is the merchant of record, taxes become their responsibility, not yours. At FastSpring, we handle VAT and have dealt with all the different issues that come with it: real-time VAT ID validation, exemption for B2B customers, being able to display prices using VAT net pricing mode or VAT gross pricing mode, and so on...
