The developers of some apps have websites where you can find them to download from. I don't know of any where you can find the whole collection in one spot, though. Google is your friend on this one. Just check the apps on Androlib.com. If something piques your interest, check the dev's website.

If you root your phone, you could install an app called "MarketEnabler" (search for it in google) that allows you to fake your location and therefore buy apps in the market.

What does rooting your phone do?
