A domain .us should work better to rank in google for people from the us, but if you already own that one, and it is an aged domain and with pr I can't see why not use the .net one...

I wouldnt use it... Just convert this site in to world wide... Start building links from .us websites.. if you didnt do already, set your site is targetted world eide in webmaster account...

By doing this you can even go for another country in future...

Depends on the amount of backlinks to your .net domain. If you already have a lot of relevant backlinks with proper anchor text, then go ahead.

If that's not the case, then try to get a .us if you only will target us market.

Another option is to integrate the us webshop in your current solution.
