Thanks @samir_doshi ! It'll be interesting to see how that plays out. It seems AirBnb and Uber are slowing facing regulatory headwinds now. For now BuddyExpress is focused on building solutions and can hopefully cross that bridge when it comes.

This sounds good but all too familiar like shypmate.com a current YC co. Wondering if you knew/know about them a and how you plan to differentiate @geordasche
@demi_ademuson BuddyExpress is a couple years in the making, and completely bootstrapped.
There are a couple new niche route players focused on ordering goods overseas for specific countries. They typically have a website that lets you post orders and then they coordinate manually by email. We wish them success because there is a need.
BuddyExpress is focused on providing a technology solution for social shipping that scales vs just a platform for ordering goods.

As people travel between two different countries, how BuddyExpress help users know that something is legal in leaving country but not legal in another country?
@stevesun21 Great question - planning to add feature to provide guidance on this in a future release, very important. In the meantime, there are several websites that help with this, including the TSA site. Would love to get ur ideas on how such a feature would be most effective.
