Pay a friend in cash and have him or her order it with a card?
I don't know your particular situation, but I don't imagine it would even raise an eyebrow at your bank. Lots of people buy them for lots of reasons.
If it's such a hassle, it's probably easier to just do some reading and build one yourself.

It won't raise a flag, it's a blower and a filter in a box.
It's pretty natural for a bit of paranoia when you are cultivating.
But let's not blow it out of proportion.
If you are truly worried about it, save $500 and buy yourself a plastic tub. Make a still-air box

Gotta lay off the weed, man 
Did you order spores online? That would be more risky, but still has never caused anyone a problem that I know of.

i looked at what it takes to build one and thats way over my head. also tried a glove box before and huge PITA with subpar results, it was a large cardboard box with gloves stapled to it and a plastic lined square to look through. taping it up before each use and moving stuff around with the limited reach of the gloves, just not worth it.
i can buy spores with cash from anywhere, its only the flowhood ive not been able to buy with cash.

You used a cardboard box for an SAB, had a bad time, and now want to drop $500+ on a flowhood?
Shit man, go to wally world and buy a $20 clear plastic tub. Cut two large holes in it, shoulder-width apart. You can use a large metal can, heated...you can use an hot knife..I prefer a hole saw myself.
Cardboard boxes are terrible for SABs. Of course you had a bad time with it.

No you don't.
You should never attach your gloves to the box.
Just wear tyvek sleeves and disposable gloves.
No wonder you were having a tough time. This little piece of advice will save you so much trouble 
The SAB works best when you don't try to "perfectly" seal it. All that does is create drafts from places you don't want, like the lid of the box.
The holes should be open and you should be able to comfortably reach all sides of the box.

Because you want to work in a draft-free room, and that box will never be perfectly sealed anyhow.
I've been working in one for years. I have 99% success rate with agar, grains, LC, G2G, etc.
I wear tyvek sleeves and disposable gloves. I work quickly and carefully. Working in an SAB is something you have to learn by practice.
Try it out first, then question it
