Trade requires physical goods. Australia tried to redefine what that is by including digital goods, but that won’t be recognized internationally for obvious reasons. If this interpretation of the term physical goods was ratified internationally, then you’d be correct. Until such a time, things are what they are.

Epic does indeed have branches across the world, but the main HQ and more importantly the place from which the marketplace is run is Cary, NC. That is the jurisdiction for matters pertaining to digital content sales or any disputes between Epic and the consumer. I provided an excerpt from the EULA earlier showing this, under the governance and jurisdiction clause.
edit: For those who may not want to go through the thread to find it, is a link + the excerpt:
