Vendor box storage?

Any places that offer low cost options for storing vendor boxes for the big three (that I know of) online sites for SL item sales? I'm talking like the SLExchange and Apez boxes they need to have set in a permanent location in order to distribute your items...

I'm pretty new but I've already got some items for sale, just trying to get them out to a wider market, and with A) me being new and B) these not being high-ticket items, it's rather difficult to find somewhere stable to locate a box, since renting a shop or whatnot is simply way more than I actually need... not to mention that they don't actually (at least in a few tests with contest prize money I've ran) have the turn-around to support the shop at least initially.

Maybe someone could do some good business renting out 10 prim spaces for 10-20L a week or so... just a thought. :D

Now here's a great idea that would provide a useful purpose for those 16 sq.m. lots that are everywhere. Instead of putting rotating ads on them, people could rent them out to folks who need storage space for their vendor boxes. At 3 prims each, it would be sufficient for someone who sells on SLExchange and SLBoutique, and they could even put a shade tree or some other kind of cover up so the area doesn't look quite so ugly.

I believe all of "the big three" offer places you can store your vendor boxes.

Yes, but I think they charge you after an initial trial period. You would have to cost it out, and see is the cheapest way to go.

I have offered it in the past and I'll offer it again, I have extra prims if you'd like to use 2-3 for your SLE box or whatever. As long as it's in a discreet location (up high or in the ground) and doesn't spam my customers you can certainly use my plot. Just IM me in world. (I have references and don't charge, if that helps.)
