They made it extremely difficult by not allowing PO Boxes. When you make the order, it asks for a delivery address. What do I put for it if I want it delivered to a Dhl service depot? I need to put something there.

I know that with Amazon it’s possible to have it sent to a locker box which is at a mall. However the billing address will still have my name and address on it. And you can’t pay by Bitcoin with Amazon. Maybe would have to get some Amazon gift card and buy it that way. Pain in the ass to be honest.

In here, it's possible to use a DHL service point's address and collect the parcel from there. I suggest reaching out to DHL if that's available in your place.

I am not sure if these resellers will still need to submit the information of buyers to Trezor anymore after they bought the products from Trezor and resell it.
They are resellers, no information needed to be given to the official hardware company, the information will remain to the reseller. Only people that buy directly from the hardware wallet maker official site will the hardware company have their information. If possible to buy it offline from an official reseller, it would be the best way.

How about buying from some legit/authorized resellers of hardware wallets?
For example on Trezor, Trezor got a resellers page from their website: https://trezor.io/resellers
It is categorized per country with some link to their website or online shop.

I am not sure if these resellers will still need to submit the information of buyers to Trezor anymore after they bought the products from Trezor and resell it.

Ledger also got a reseller page from their website: https://www.ledger.com/reseller


P.S. Still be careful, you still can't guarantee 100% safe hardware wallets to these resellers even if they are listed officially on the website of these hardware wallet companies. As with other suggestions, the best is to buy directly from the company.

Using a trusted dropship service with the condition that you purchase HW as a pre-order item so that shipments from the official store will not go directly to the final destination address (your address). You can use the destination address that belongs to your trusted colleague (the farther the radius, for example outside the city, the better). HW must be picked up physically, no more logistics delivery.

By anonymously I mean I don't want Ledger to get some data leak like in the past and have my personal address exposed.

I was going to get a PO box and just ship it there, however according to Ledger, they ship by DHL and DHL will not ship to PO box. I can't ship to my work address.

So I found some on Amazon. To avoid getting a fake/scam hardware wallet I was going to buy only from "Sold by Ledger Official and Fulfilled by Amazon". However how does this work exactly? Does it ship from Ledger directly to me, or does Ledger ship to Amazon and then Amazon ships it to me? Will Ledger know my shipping address? I don't care if Amazon knows because I am not worried about a data leak with Amazon, only Ledger.

If anyone has any tips please let me know.
