people will fear that - in a way or another - you may tamper those hardware wallets since you have physical access to them.

Since OP is using Amazon lockers, I don't think he ever gets to touch the hardware wallet (or the box). Unless he works at Amazon or has someone on the inside, but that brings us back here:

even from Amazon it seems to have happened to receive HW with seed already in

I'd say the risk of a receiving a compromised hardware wallet when ordering from OP is the same as when you order from Amazon directly. I've received fake products from Amazon in the past (not related to Bitcoin, just cheap knockoffs), so clearly their quality assurance system isn't perfect.
The next risk is trusting a Newbie, but I like the idea of improved privacy.

but I would love to hear any feedback y'all might have

Since you are pretty much unknown, I expect trust issues: people will fear that - in a way or another - you may tamper those hardware wallets since you have physical access to them. Of course, re-packaging needs some extra care, but it's not that difficult.
People were advised all the time to avoid third party and order directly from the factory shop where possible (since even from Amazon it seems to have happened to receive HW with seed already in, I will look for link, but I don't promise results) and this may be a problem for your business.

Hi,
I just started a service that uses amazon lockers to enable anonymous delivery of hardware wallets and other items, https://anonymouslocker.app/ . I have been a long time advocate of hardware wallets but hardware wallet manufacturers have shown a general disregard for their users safety by mishandling their name, phone number and email, in my opinion. So I made a service that lets you get a hardware wallet delivered near you without giving up any personal information. I am sure a lot of people here already have a hardware wallet, but I would love to hear any feedback y'all might have. Thanks and have a great day!
