A shop primarily used to pick-up items ordered online (also known as "click and collect"). It may have a meager supply of products.
If the shop also has a proper browsable inventory on-site, use a normal shop type instead - regardless whether its main business is to allow pickup of items ordered online. For example, a bookstore whose main business is as a pickup point for books ordered online but nevertheless has a proper book supply on-site, use shop=books.
The same holds true for kiosks that also offer parcel pickup (see parcel_pickup=*). However, If it is just a self-service pick-up station, use amenity=parcel_locker plus fitting supplementary tags instead.
Pure mail order businesses (also known as catalog selling businesses) without pick-up should be tagged with office=company (and a fitting subtag) instead. Big industrial warehouses, without customer access, should be tagged as industrial=warehouse instead.
Note that the name of the tag value may be problematic, as it refers to things other than shop[1]. There is a a proposal to replace this tag with another: Proposal:Pickup points
