can U bring it?

Written by on August 11th, 2009 in Proposal submissions 2009

Describe your idea:

A mix between traveling site and pledgebank where people agree to bring to other people something special from remote places that can not be found in their own country… and pay for it.

There could be a point system where you earn by bringing something, the right to be brought something … (optional)

There could be specific drop-off points in towns or airports + PMs for other arrangements

There are safety measures in the system not to prevent trafficking of illegal goods and to make sure you are safe doing favors to others.

What problem does it solve?:

I have very often traveled in remote places just to find out that if people had known they would have asked me to bring this or that …

It can also tackle one of the big issues still with e-commerce where the transportation of goods from remote places is sometimes more expensive than the goods themselves.

Type of idea: A brand new project
