Anyone can put anything in?  That doesn't sound like it would be regulated at all...

It depends. I could have one at my home, and it would be unregulated. I could also open up a shop and now I would be able to supervise what people put in.

Also there is an incentive for people not to put illegal things in their locker. The police could simply seize the product and make the vendor loose the locker. The police would need to have some sort of special key so it could open lockers without paying. Since the vendor would have paid for the locker, he would loose both the product and the locker.

It would be helpful to have a shopkeeper to supervise, as people might try to sell broken electronics for example. The shopkeeper could test products briefly before allowing them in the machine.

It should be vending machine, not vendor machine.

Thanks.
