Did I F up?

I just ran across How to Purchase Securely 101 and I wish I had earlier. I know it wasn't smart to order with my credit card and have it shipped to my house but I figured that it was a trusted site and it was OK to do. Has anyone else done this? I definitely am having second thoughts now...

if you paranoid, ask someone your super trust and ship to their place.
I used my ladie's card and had it shipped to her P.O. Box, it gets cold here, and it makes me feel a little bit better.
but spores are perfectly legal to own and research.
Have fun and don't be so paranoid man, i'm pretty sure the government has bigger fish to fry than some guy who ordered a few syringes of spores.

The Spore Store did make the mistake of shipping to my billing address and not my shipping address, which caused some minor problems for me, but it all worked out in the end.

It doesn't hurt to be cautious, but don't let it form into paranoia. Spores are perfectly legal to possess (in 47 states anyway) for mycological research purposes.

i never had problems shipping to my own house, I made an alias just to "feel" safe, kept my first name the same and the last name was similar, but I don't think that is necessary, really do what ever makes you comfortable!

I wouldnt be worried. They do accept cash you know :P Thats how i did it last time, Cash to Spores 101, then shipped to my dead grandpa's PO box that i still maintain. Granted if your cash gets lost in the mail you get boned but its only 30$ for the security of being anonymous.

I would always encourage healthy paranoia. I would disagree with the statement that the government has bigger fish to fry. When you see the mess Bush has made of the US it is very possible to have a world in which you are constantly monitored by scripts and large databases.
The monitoring that we are allowing to take place will ultimately get out of control unless we start doing something about it. It doesn't matter how small a fish you are if they can run scripts against all your transactions, purchases, Facebook entries, web browsing history, etc. Then simply develop a system to search for patterns in this information. It doesn't take anything but processor cycles provided by home users with clustered computing 
/end rant
Cheers
