I have ordered a few things - non-wrestling figs, like Pops. Apparently this thing can live on cardboard for 24 hours and 3 days on plastic... although, there are some sources that say there is no evidence it can be caught from letters/parcels.

My wife has done the shopping for us. Only goes like once every 2 weeks and if she’s at Walmart or Target I’ll have her look for items, but I’m definitely not ordering as much right now. Trying to stock up as much $$ as possible and no real fun purchases except for things for my kids.

I've been ordering more than ever. I just got a figure in yesterday, and one the day before. I have even more on the way and a couple auctions I'm aiming for.
Right now, as I've said, I'm lucky enough to still be getting paid. No stimulus in my future, but the money is still flowing. And with all of my normal support systems broken down, I rely on "Retail Therapy" more than ever. I've got nowhere to go, and nothing to do, so opening a package every other day or so helps to break the monotony.
The way I look at it, this bug can last 3 days on plastic. The quickest anything ever gets from there to here is 4-5 days. As long as I wear a mask and gloves to open the box and trash it immediately afterward, I'm good.

So for me it really depends. If it's a newer figure that I KNOW I won't be able to find in stores, I'll order it if need be. If it's an older figure (BCA, RA, ToyBiz) then I am kind of forced to order it due to my local retro shops being closed down for the time being. So its gonna case by case basis. As long as I keep my hands clean and wear some gloves, I know I'll be alright.

I just preordered Both Elite 76 Christians, All of the Flashbacks in Elite 77, UE Cena, and 3 Edgehead exclusive figures. But then again hopefully this thing has been SOMEWHAT suppressed by the time that package will go out (August) but I've been ordering. I am working from home right now. I still get plenty of Marvel Legends. I have the X-Men Age Of Apocalypse Marvel Legends wave on preorder and just got my Leader, Mar-Vell, Rage, And Mach I from the Avengers wave preorder and Crossbones and Winter Soldier from the Widow wave in the mail (plus I got the other pieces so I could complete Crimson Dynamo). Plus, I've used this slow down to go back and get some grails like Satana, Moonstone, Ghost from the Thunderbones SDCC set and the Marvel unlimited exclusive Comic based Rescue. Not to mention I scored another pair of Black Air Flight '89s that were on sale (along with coupons came out to 46 shipped.)my 3rd pair of those. Not to mention I've bought a few band and comic related shirts and Trade Paperbacks and hardcovers (Masterworks and Omnibus). Also I've bought some needed computer parts as I've been upgrading my rig with better graphic cards and sound cards and processors. Plus two new Externals.
