 Spore Ordering Do's and Don'ts

Here's a few things to take into consideration when ordering spores.
Know your address!!! This means putting the St, Ave, Blvd on there as well as knowing your correct zip. And don't forget your apt/unit/lot #!
Use your real name or at least first initial/last name. Many postmen will not deliver a package to an address when the name on the package doesn't match the name registered at that address. You may think Mike Hunt is a great name, but the package will most likely get shipped back.
We require a signature for ALL UPS packages. If you can't sign for it, don't choose UPS.
UPS won't ship to a PO Box so if you have a PO Box don't choose UPS shipping.
And the biggest one of all.
Don't have your legal items shipped to a neighbor's address (that you don't know) and then file a temporary mail forward for that address thinking you're being all stealthy and no one will know. This did not only cause me a lot of grief, but now the local leo, postal inspectors and feds are looking for you on federal mail tampering charges you fucking dumb ass!!!
Thank you all for following these SIMPLE guidelines! Well most of you anyway.

USPS has to go by the number, not by the name on package.......

I will disagree with that, since I have 2 orders sitting here that were returned for reason: Name Not on Box.

Brainiac, Most carriers will not deliver if the name on the package doesn't match the names that belong on the PO Box or Address.

what's your authority for this?
USPS involves themselves in all sorts of stupid endeavors, not the least of which is determining that a particular addressee doesn't exist at that residence
They refuse delivery on this ground all the time in my area, whether proper or not.
And to the OP, this is good information. I couldn't stand dealing w/ idiots who send shit to their neighbor and then get the postal inspectors screwing around w/ my buisness. Sheesh.
What do they think a change of address form does? What possible justification could there be? I can think of none whatsoever from the postal standpoint. These forms are saved and the actual mailpiece is relabled w/ the forwarding address.

That funny, because we don't have a first or last name on my US mailbox..Thats way, I said they go by address.. I still get stuff for family thats been dead 10+ years..I've mis spilled my name and address on orders, lifted out a number in my address and got my orders..

I know most of the vendors and I am going to agree 100% with Night Train on this one. However I would like to add the #1 rule
The #1 Rule is (For active species) "These spores are for Microscopic research ONLY!!!!" If you ask about anything else your order will more than likely not make it to you!

Some places will deliver the mail no matter what name is on the package, and some places won't deliver unless it matches the address on file (most apartments). Some will, some won't.
There. Now can we stop arguing about that?

I hate to say it but, did you ship a box just an address and no name? 
How the hell would USPS know that someone didn't just move in? Do we all have to register with the local police when we move now? I heard somewhere that some states require you to register any change of address immediately with the DMV, and if you haven't notified them for a couple weeks and they catch you, you're arrested.
You'd almost think you're living in the USSR or France
In my area they are now requiring that you go to the post office and put your name on the address. It is a small card that you fill out and they keep on file. If you do not, they return the mail to the sender. That is unless the name on the mail is "To Current Resident"  Which is almost always junk mail. I say almost because I have ordered stuff and told them to address it "To Current Resident" and it gets here just fine. 
Government Inelegance is an oxymoron.
