You need to buy a physical DVD of Mac OS X 10.6 and install it to get the App Store app to upgrade to 10.7 or higher.
$20 from Apple.
this. after you're done downloading the 10.7, make a bootable USB (google is your friend) and then you no longer need the 10.6 DVD, you could sell it. Or if you have a friend with 10.6, use their machine do download 10.7; you can buy the 10.7 from the link you posted above, just use your friend;s machine to make a new account, and download 10.7 for yourself, make bootable USB and go home. with the $20 you saved but some beer and pizza for your friend, LOL. at least you save one install.
