UKNM: RE: Boxes outside Doors

My guess is that it won't take long before you get teams of blokes in vans

with the right equipment who'll whizz round the 'burbs, ripping these things

out form the ground(camera and all) and dismantling them in their own time

in some lock-up somewhere...


JB Writes:

Tom - I think you've forgotten that, unless watched, in the majority of

cases the boxes will be empty. Even if 'shopping' increases, I reckon that

maybe only 5-10% maximum of these boxes will be actually filled at any one

time. If the cameras on them don't 'hold' their pictures (i.e. when you

steal the box, you don't get the images) then it's a pretty risky process

for any burglar. Especially if the alarm system also dials-up to the

Rozzers. Imaging the robbers going to all this trouble if all they get out

of twenty boxes nicked are a few software manuals, a case of wine and a bag

of salad and Pastagustos (probably the best lazy-food out!).


And another big advantage about being delivered to home rather than the

office (as someone mentioned elsewhere) is that you don't have to carry the

stuff so far. Imagine ordering three dozen bottles of your favourite

Chardonnay and then trying to get this home on the bus.
