  This sounds like a great idea. I know I've been screwed over by UPS/FedEX/USPS/insert-your-delivery-bitches-here, and I've seen some very scary almost fuck-ups. Case in point:

  My roomate orders a Sony Glasstron (you know, the 50" tv for your eyes). He orders it with explicit instructions to deliver the package to our apartment complex office, NOT to our apartment. No one was going to be home, and he didn't want the package returned to the FedEX office.

  So, I come home that afternoon from work for a late lunch, and there's a small brown box with Sony in huge letters emblazoned on it sitting on my doorstep. There's no packing slip, no address label, nothing. So I think "Cool. A letter bomb. The UniBomber's back :".

  I take it inside and after a quick call to my roomie, I find a bitchin' pair of Sony Glasstrons in the box. Hoo boy was he pissed! I, on the other hand, got to experience the joy that is Crazy Taxi in full 50" splendor

  So, my point is, PaxZone sounds like a sweet idea :)

    Re: PaxZone's got the right idea.

    I agree, it would even be useful here in England. The royal mail are one of the biggest package delivery firms (alongside those that you listed) but they always take it back to their depot (which is always too far away and inconvienient). Guess what? This space is wide open in the UK and the rest of Europe, anyone interested?
