I has a neato business idea, that's presumably not commercially viable for some reason, so it may be stupid but here it is:- Open an actual physical shop for online shoppin'!
Cash up front, we order Anything You Want* to the branch & txt/call you when it arrives. Flat fee per item.
Assuming you're an idiot, our experts (me) can do all the internetting for you.
Totally confidential. Ideal for suprise presents for live-in couples, for people without credit cards or permanent addresses, and for perverts.
Anyone wanna invest in me?
*Size limits apply. No fish, manure or livestock (incl. Thai/Russian brides),

the only problem being that people that would use it like internet-less people wouldn't want to wait a day / days to get it... and would probably rather just go down to argos or something.
perhaps you could combine it with a selling department, where people can bring you stuff to sell for them on ebay for a small comission?
that way occasionally you might find that you have something in stock at the time that someone would like to buy.
But I guess then you may as well just open a normal shop
In the (reasonably) funny movie 'The 40 Year Old Virgin' the main love interest runs a shop where people bring in stuff, and she sells it on eBay. In one scene she refuses to sell something to somebody who's actually come into the shop, because 'That's not how the shop works'
Shop, Shop, Shop.
