get the trilogy + eotn off amazon obv. for the credit card, put the address of where you want it delivered of course, i mean they will end up sending it to that address, might as well be secure. Plus no matter what address you put in, it should be correct and end up getting to you, which will most likely happen if you put it in correctly.

id advise avoiding steam to be honest.
it is quite an intrusive delivery system which updates and downloads onto your machine wether you want it to or not.
just get the normal amazon one,its much less hassle. cheers

You need to have an account on amazon, yes. Basically you want to put down your delivery address yeah, where they will be delivering it to. Amazon isn't the government hunting you down because you didn't put your home address down What i recommend though is that you use paypal instead, its so much easily traceable, its safer for me especially.

Amazon has separate billing and delivery addresses. You must enter the address associated with the credit card as the billing address, but you can use a different delivery address if you want.

If you want it to arrive on your doorstep, I'd recommend telling them where that door is... Yes, sign up; you can then do "1-click buy" and record your aunts credit details!

Either way is safe and fine.

To order via Steam, you have to have Steam installed, but once you finish your order, you can just copy/paste the GW keys then uninstall steam. You do not have to keep Steam installed to play GW. I know this for a fact because I bought one of my accounts this way.

To order off of Amazon, yes you must give your mailing address...so they know where to ship the game to. >.> The shipping address and billing address are seperate fields, so you can put different ones in (the billing address is the address associated with the credit card, the shipping address is where the order will be sent to). If the credit card holder lives with you, I'd recommend just putting your address in for both (billing and shipping), to keep things simple.

Also, the billing address needs to match the billing address for the credit card or the purchase may be denied, so make sure you put in the correct one.
