Amazon wants to deliver to your trunk (if you own an Audi)

pit5000

Amazon and Audi working to grant one-time access to your car's trunk for delivery! Only in one German city with DHL it seems for now

 

(Just remember to lock you folding rear seats just in case)

That must be annoying to the guy though, like picture him 5 mins away, then you go somewhere and every time he gets close, you move. Trolls will troll

The time you enjoy wasting, is not wasted time.

That would be epic for a hidden camera program. Someone just hides in the car (or remote control it) and right as the dude walks up, it just pulls away and speeds off.

Even better : put someone in there, tied up, covered with fake blood and pretending to be dead.

It's not a bad idea, but you'd have to make sure not to store anything important in the boot. Also, do they specify if the car needs to be stationary? I'm thinking make them catch up and deliver it whilst driving round a car park :D

That, or stuff Chris Pontius from Jackass in there, hands bound, in a leopard banana hammock. Like this.

Why dont they ask for keys from your house so they can deliver to your libing room / shower / bedroom or wherever the purchased item will be used ?!

Oh wait, maybe thats next step.

I really don't want anyone else to have access to the junk in my trunk. Feels a little invasive, even if I asked for it.

The biggest problem with this is that DHL is still a thing. Over here in the US they where terrible. In my area they no longer do the last mile of not freight deliveries because they where terrible at it. My brother had a package placed in a (empty) Fountain at the a building on the wrong street. I don't know what they are like in Europe put pretty much everyone near me has seen enough of them to rate them as fantastically incompetent.

UPS bought out DHL's US operations
