Sadly to say, I wasn't that lucky to purchase the keepkey wallet in Black Friday. Also the wallet costs 23$ and not just 5. Maybe i will wait till next year to find a cheap hard wallet or wait for a cheap model.
Thank you all guys for your help.
There is no more need for this thread so am closing it.

I would NOT suggest to use Shapeshift with your KeepKey wallet if you value your privacy,
but you can use KeepKey with chrome browser client, or even better with Electrum wallet

I just noticed your PM. I can lend you the amount needed to buy one. Just drop me à message with your bitcoin address.
This really made my day Believe or not, i was sure that you will respond me. Thank you so much for your generosity and your kindness as well. This did really warm my heart
I will send back the amount+tip in few days.
I just sent you my address.
This is why am asking about the relation between the exchange and the wallet, and if there is any possibility for the exchange to collect any kind of data from the wallet without my permission.
I don't think they can do that as the main purpose from using a hardware wallet is to keep your private keys offline and never share them with any third party.If you are still skeptical, you can connect KeepKey to Electrum and use it instead of ShapeShift.

In the product description, first line is this :
I know about ledger nano hardware wallet for btc but never hear before about keepkey and the ability to store altcoins and even process a swap. This is why am asking about the relation between the exchange and the wallet, and if there is any possibility for the exchange to collect any kind of data from the wallet without my permission.
Usually, i don't trust exchanges so it's normal to have many doubts about anything related to them.

I wish nobody consider this as kinda of "begging for a loan" . I really wished to use a hardware wallet {didn't use any yet☹️} after the mod of my local board announce the news for the 5$ wallet in arabic board : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/hardware-wallet-5-5205544

KeepKey is the premier wallet in the new ShapeShift Platform, a web-based interface for managing your crypto, now with commission free trading.

Well, no. Because ShapeShift is an exchange and KeepKey is a hardware wallet. These are two very different products/platforms, just with one owner(Erik Voorhees). You can use your KeepKey to swap your funds back and forth to different cryptocurrencies through the ShapeShift platform if you want to(but this is of course optional).
It seems that op did miss some things about the keepkey hardware wallet. As what I understood in the quote above is that keepkey hardware wallet is using the shapeshift platform that will able you to buy, sell, trade, receive, send, track and store your cryptocurrency that you have.

his lead me to ask if i have to connect Keepkey to a registered shapeshift account ? Isn't an indepandant wallet that works seperately?Well, no.

Am from Tunisia. Here we can't use international paiement cards as we can't transfer money out of the country. We can create a paypal account but can't be verified using tunisian address. This is what i meant by "not supported".
Make sure to visit the Currency exchange section where you can find well reputed members that will pay your invoices with their Paypal accounts and you can pay them with Bitcoin (some may ask for a commission)Quote

No, you don't have to create an account or to verify your identity unless you want to use their integrated exchange. 
Oh.. thanks for your explanation.
that can accept crypto, exchange it on to fiat and send it directly to paypal. i've used it for almost 8 month now. No problem till now.
or alternatively, you can read this post : https://steemit.com/exchange/@acidyo/how-to-transfer-from-paypal-to-crypto-and-vice-versa, perhaps it works for you.

By proceeding, yes i found that i can use bitpay to pay for it. I didn't use that website before and just now to discover that Keepkey is the name of official wallet for shapeshift. This lead me to ask if i have to connect Keepkey to a registered shapeshift account ? Isn't an indepandant wallet that works seperately?<...>

This is what i meant by "not supported". -As am not in a country supported by PayPal, i can't use their service. -
may i know what kind of not supported are?
Are you :
- - Cant register
- - Can't verification (bank problems) so you can't withdraw but still can do transactions.
- - others
Have you tried checking out? If you continue, you should get the option to use bitpay...
Another opportunity in the black friday with Shspeshift. You can buy a hardware wallet only for 5$ instead of 79$.

Paiement can be made via Paypal as the only option to do this. As am not in a country supported by PayPal, i can't use their service. My question is Does there any solution here in the forum to ask someone to buy it for me using his paypal? and i will pay him in btc. How to find this person and how to deal with him? Thank you all who will respond🌹
