No, a money order is as good as cash it doesnt matter who's name is on it....
On the envelope.. You are taking a chance not putting a legit return address because what if it gets lost??
Get tracking w/ delivery confirmation.. Use a fake name on the enevelope.. If you are having them shipped to your house.. Then you have to put your addy!!
If you are using false info on your enevelope and money order.. make sure u enclose a note specifiying delivery information

I'm pretty sure you do. They need a name to cash the money order and I don't know if the P.O. will deliver it or not without a name. Just go with Smokey Mcweed and you'll be OK.

no man if I put a name on it I'd go with something like Bob Johnson or Steve Green. Better yet if you get mail for people that lived at your house before you, use their name.

Don't use peoples names that used to live at your address..usually that have changed their mail at the PO office and have it forwarded to there new address.

Just make sure they put your name on the envelope your seeds are being shipped in otherwise you may not recieve it, it can cause some problems

If you still get their mail at your address why not? I get mail almost everyday for the cat I bought my house from. If I didn't have a buddy willing to help me out I'd use his name.

The Doc is an outstanding human being. You need to do your part if you are sending a money order. If you live in the US, it has to be a International Money Order. Not one you get from the Circle-K, or 7-11, and it has to have the appropriate postage on it to get it to the UK. The best place to get both is your friends at the USPS.(Post Office) Money orders take ALOT longer than ordering with a credit card. If you want your seeds in about a week use a credit card or debit card. I know you think it may be risky, but it's not. In the longrun, it saves you time and money. And it saves Doc the same. He has ALWAYS been kind to me. I wont tell, but I have always ordered with a credit card and used the Stealth/Breeder pack option, and whenever I see my package in the mail it gives me a big smile. I just got a package from him today. Jock Horror and a C4 x Black Russian freebie. Thanks Doc

Yeah, I don't know how it works in your country, but in ours names on envelopes don't matter...If you still get their mail at your address why not? I get mail almost everyday for the cat I bought my house from. If I didn't have a buddy willing to help me out I'd use his name.
How much room does a pack of seeds take? Could be a normal letter... what's the chances of customs picking out your package? Very, Very slim.

When go to the post office and change your address in the US, the way it works is that they will forward any First Class mail that was sent to you at your old address for a period of one year. After a year, they assume that you have tied up any loose ends, and sent your address to everyone from whom you regularly receive mail. After the year, they are supposed to stop forwarding things, but they often continue to forward them after that. So, if you use a former resident's name, it can likely be forwarded, as it will certainly be First Class mail. Some people say that using a fake name will potentially put up red flags in customs, but I don't think that is even remotely possible. Just use a fake name that isn't associated with you, or your house. Or, use your real name. I did, and I am not in prison. Yet. Oh, and trust the Doc! He's way legit.If you still get their mail at your address why not? I get mail almost everyday for the cat I bought my house from. If I didn't have a buddy willing to help me out I'd use his name.
