    If i order an item from Sold by _____ Fulfilled by Amazon. What would it say on the credit card statement. The sold by or amazon?

    I live at home with my parents, im bisexual/pansexual and my parents are really homophobic. I order through amazon often through amazon household account. i wanted to get my boyfriend a present for his birthday but I dont want to be outed by a credit card statement.

    Dont know how old you are, but if you can drive and stuff, look into getting a P.O. Box at your local post office. Then you can send whatever you want there and pick it up at your leisure without incident.

    Amazon purchases are billed by Amazon directly. However, it is true that the order details will show up on the order history.

    As far as delivery, in many areas, Amazon is offering lockers... you can have your order delivered to a locker and have I think 5 days to pick it up.

    You'd think this would be straightforward, but the last (and only) time I went to the P.O. and inquired into a box, they said "Sure, can we see the title deed to your house?" I went "whaaa?" Don't know if that's standard, but I went with a UPS box instead.
