I'm at least as paranoid as any man who's no more paranoid than me. So I've been buying the 7-eleven money orders for 65 cents and mailing them. I order the seeds online from U.S. vendors, using a fake name and a real address, and choose payment method "cash/money order." I mail the money order by regular mail (or certified mail if the vendor requests it). They hold my order 'til they receive the $$, which only adds a couple of days to the shipping time. They e-mail me at a secure address to let me know they received the $$ and send a tracking #. I've bought from 5 different vendors that way and never a problem. My state is almost legal, but I'm still old-school paranoid. I'm so old that we used to do business by making collect calls between pay phones! I know some of y'all youngsters are like, "What's a pay phone?"
