[TUT]How to buy hardware wallet from unsupported country

[dimonstration]

Hardware wallet became more popular today after the FTX failure because it reminds again all user to not keep money on exchange or any wallet that they don’t have control its private key.

I’m planning to buy my hardware wallet since there’s a Black Friday sale until Monday on Trezor shop but my country is not supported anymore to make any order. I do some search online and I found a solution. It adds extra cost to shipping but it’s worth it rather than purchasing on local seller that is not a licensed distributor that gives risk on my wallet before I even use it.

Answer: Drop shipping Service

I found a trusted company (https://www.shippingcart.com/) that doing this service in my country with good feedback and I think there are same company to yours that offering same service. I’m planning to organized a group buy on our local board and my social account to share the shipping fee within the participants. I think the total cost that we will spend on this service will be close to the amount that we will save on the Black Friday discount which is why buying now while sale is the perfect way to do this.


Happy shopping!

It is ideal if you check here first https://trezor.io/resellers if they have authorized resellers it's all about the safety of your assets and your security at the same time also you can seek an alternative with the ledger too, https://www.ledger.com/reseller, it is better to pay/spend extra for the hardware wallet than taking a risk and storing funds in exchange.

Think twice before you call any company ''trusted'' especially dealing with crypto.
I don't know if you are living in Philippines or in some other country, but I would be very careful trusting anyone to handle delivery of your hardware wallets.
However, this is a valid issue you are facing, and I saw another member (dgoon) trying to solve this problem by using Amazon lockers, but that works only in United States.
Best thing you can do is to find reseller shops in your country and pay directly with cash, to avoid complications and leaking personal information.

You can also make your own DIY hardware wallet or order any other alternative open source wallets:
