When ordering certain things, do they actually CHECK if you're a minor?

[JohnGalt]

Or is it like porno sites and it's just a CYA move? I'm planning on purchasing certain items from a website, however it states that you must be over 18 to purchase. I'm curious if they'll actually scan my credit card though, because if so, I won't try.

as long as your CC is good you wont have a problem... it's all done electronically and no one is going to see it... if the card has a prob then it will spit up an error and then it needs human attention...

actually it depends on the site... i've never heard of a paraphanaliea site checking to verify someone's age...

however, i know most airgun sites require an adult signature upon delivery.

Well if it's a gun what would anyone expect??? Chances of being carded at a bong site are prettymuch nonexistant...

it's only a bb gun tho... lol they even card you for paintball guns.. WTF? honestly... they are made purposely to shoot people with.. they're designed to hurt, so there's motive to not get shot... but also designed to not pose serious injury or death... unless someone's stupid enough to go paintballing without a mask (any paintball courses require them btw) or shoot themselves in the mouth with a paintball, there's no real danger...

Paintballing on the freeway could be bad...

i buy my cigarettes off the internet, cause its cheaper, and they card me when they get delivered, but ive got a fake id. i had a bowl delivered, and nothing happened.

Well, the deal was I ordered some things from IAMSHAMAN (NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION ).

It let me ordered, but y'all were right, it will require someone over 18 to sign for it. That should be cool though, cuz I actually did get incense with it, so my dad will prolly do it, and I can just say I wanted to get some 'authentic' incense.

So yea, thanks for reminding me about the sign for delivery thing.
