Is this a bad idea?

After loading bitcoin to my wallet, I noticed that a vendor that I was going to buy from closed off US orders. I am thinking to have a buddy in the UK be shipped a package, buy another label and fill out my shipping info, and reship it to me. Is this in any way more risky than regular international shipping? What should she use as a return address? Not a noob to domestic packs, never gone international before.

The packaging a vendor uses for UK domestic might not pass customs to the USA. I would recommend using a domestic vendor or a international vendor that has experience shipping to USA.

What you describe is known as drop shipping. And wether a friend sends it or a vendor, it's still international. It's the same risk, maybe even more risky because the vendor might do a better job.

Ask the vendor if he thinks his stealth is good enough for international. Probably the person who knows the most, is the person who was actually doing it.
