I thought about this idea myself, so let me point out the flaws in it (from my perspective):<p>- There is very little incentive for carriers to carry the goods and this company to turn a profit as well<p>- Global shipping will not be that much more expensive. Customs is what makes imports expensive<p>- ^^ customs. You will be skirting them a lot. What happens during a random luggage stop-and-check when the carrier is found with a $1,000 Apple laptop? Who goes to jail or is held accountable?<p>- What stops nefarious carriers from keeping the goods for themselves? Most carriers won&#x27;t carry unknown items and when they become known (and their value) - and because the receiver won&#x27;t go reporting about their Apple laptop they were expecting - theft becomes very real and likely<p>- Traveler logistics: Airports aren&#x27;t 5&#x2F;10 minutes away from most folks. Getting the goods from the sender -&gt; carrier -&gt; receiver can and will be a major headache<p>There&#x27;s plenty of issues, but I&#x27;d like to see where you guys go with this, as it will be an interesting experiment.
