The present invention discloses a system for the anonymous purchase of
goods. A Customer requests to purchase some physical goods, the Vendor
determines the cost of the goods, and asks the Customer to select a
Carrier. The Vendor requests a Customer Token and redirects the
Customer's browser to the Carrier, with the Customer Token, a Vendor
Token and a description of the package. The Carrier validates the
Vendor's Token and uses the Customer's token to request information about
the Customer, including shipping instructions. The Carrier assigns a
shipping identifier and shipping cost and redirects the Customer's
browser back to the Vendor along with the identifier and shipping cost.
The Vendor adjusts the cost to include shipping, packages the goods, and
labels the packages with the shipping identifier. The Carrier picks up
the packages, prints a complete label using the Customer information
associated with the shipping identifier and delivers the goods.
