I get my powders from two sources I have dealt with them for years they don't all ways ask for my certificate. It's not a legal requirement more a cautionary measure. I don't have a problem showing my certificate when buying powder or primers.
I also have no issue with showing my FAC for the purchase of powder. In fact, if I know that I'll be visiting a gun shop in the first place then I will always carry my ticket with me quite simply because all RFD's are different in that respect.

I do the same in case they have anything else that takes my fancy that I do need my FAC for.......

I have never been asked for my FAC when buying powder, but some RFDs have asked for my name and address.

RFD now has to record batch numbers of ammo sold. Too late getting out of the EU
