but anyone plan to pay for subscription and avail this? Do you think such business model would work in India?
 
Think this wont be a small list. Quite a lot of FK regulars might get it. I too got the mail.

Regarding would I pay for such a service? It will depend on how much it costs and what benefits will be available in tier 2 cities (for me).
 
Didnt get it.

Ah well.. I guess they wouldnt have 'awarded' it to me since their idiotic policies with courier partners deny any product purchase over 10k, despite being located in a well known/accessible area.

Now i wish that people who do get this, gang up and order stuff for acquaintances as well and deny FK any chance of their silly delivery charges :borg: (The >500 condition is stupid as well.)
 
I got this mail. :)
