I have yet to make my first purchase on SR and i want to purchase from a trusted domestic (Ireland) vendor. The problem is that the trusted vendor asks to Finalize Early (which i do not want to do) since i have yet to make a purchase on SR and am not trusted.
However, the vendor does have a Tracking option and if this is chosen then the vendor does not ask to Finalize Early. So with that i have a few questions.
1) Is it advised to give real or fake names on the address the vendor sends the product to?
2) Is it safe/safer to have your shipping tracked?
3) If tracked shipping requires a signature should a real or fake signature be given and is giving a signature in the first place even safe?

1. It is advised to use a name that will get delivered. Vendors advise to use a name that will assure delivery. Using a name that might now could result in your pack not being able to be delivered.
2. It's all preference. You can use first class just fine. Priority is usually quicker. Vendors usually do not supply tracking numbers on orders unless your order is taking awhile to arrive.
3. Signature is not required. You should never have to sign for a package. If they try to make you, don't sign for it.
