So, you want to buy an 80% blank or a parts kit, hell anything you want from the internet, but as anonymously as possible? Alright, let's do this.


1. Go purchase some Visa prepaid cards with cash in another town in a store you don't frequent, wearing clothes that aren't your normal getup.
2. Purchase an inexpensive tablet or other Internet capable portable device off Craigslist or Ebay (do NOT connect to your home network when you get this device)
3. Scout around your town for a recently foreclosed house, or a foreclosed house that at least looks like it might have inhabitants; enough to fool a delivery man, at least
4. Go to an Internet cafe or coffee shop at least an hour away from your home
5. Use your Internet device to go to the website selling what you want, and purchase it with the visa prepaid cards while using a fictitious name
6. Ship the items to the foreclosed house you previously scouted
7. On the day of the delivery, go and check to see if the item is at the house. If not, leave and check again. If it is there, you can pick it up and walk away: no trail to you.

Now, some do's and don't's.
Do use a vehicle without any tracking or data logging capabilities, so something with OBD-I should be the newest vehicle you should use.
Don't carry a cellphone during any leg of this venture, since that's just a tracker sitting riiiight in your pocket.
Do try to find a foreclosed house with a short fence if you can; it's less likey to have the package stolen that way
Don't use the Internet device you purchased for this task ever again. With the price of simple internet capable android tablets being $40, sometimes less on the used market, it's not worth it to risk leaving it lying around; destroy it.

You could add more and more layers of security to this of course, but that's just the basics, and unless you're already being watched for some weird reason, that'll work we'll enough.

This is how you get flagged by the NSA :P
