Would you let stranger into your home in order to not miss a package?

Amazon is banking on the idea that you will with its new Amazon Key service.

The retail giant is launching the service on Nov. 8 for members of its Prime service but it won’t be cheap.

In order to allow Amazon’s drivers into your home to deliver packages when you aren’t there you need a kit that starts at $249.99.

The kit includes the items needed to use the service. Namely a security camera, Cloud Cam and a smart lock.

The feature will not only be for Amazon deliveries either. According to the company it can be used to allow family or friends into your home, as well as house cleaners, dog walkers or anyone else you would like to allow to traverse your residence while you aren’t home, according to CNN.

Amazon drivers would be given a one time access code to enter your home and deliver packages.

But social media users do not seem to be too eager to give it a shot.

What a horrible idea. How about a lockbox outside my front door. I’m not letting random strangers into the house.

Amazon Key has so much potential for bad situations. Rape, assault, hidden cams, theft… Service sounds great but a hacker could do damage

All you Black Amazon delivery drivers, don’t let Amazon Key get you caught up. Leave the packages on the porch https://t.co/nCX9cAGPC8

If you’re black and you deliver packages for Amazon, you better NOT enter someone’s house. Amazon Key or not, don’t play yourself ☝?

Notice how all the Amazon key ads don’t show black delivers. I wonder why?
