I’ve used GoldBelly to ship Philadelphia tomato pie to Florida for an inflated price. Same idea. It’s great for special occasions and gifts.

Is this market bigger than I might be thinking it to be? It's a cool feature, but my investor hat seems less thrilled. It seems expensive and seldom used. But the profit margins could be good.

Flowers aren't shipped nationwide. Flowers are ordered nationwide, and delivered by local florists.
Flowers seem something of an exception. A number of occasions where sending flowers is something of an expectation however unreasonable the markups.
