How to buy a hardware wallet without getting done:
Buy directly from the manufacturer. Pay in sats on Lightning. Give as little detail as you can, ship it somewhere that isn't your home, or buy it in person at a conference stand.
And as MaxUM (npub1lqv…fx0r) puts it, don't go on eBay, Facebook Marketplace, Grindr, wherever you're spending your time.
