EDIT: PLEASE answer the poll properly. I gave everyone 2 votes. If you would not use the rental service, the 2nd vote goes to the option that says to choose it if you voted no. There are currently 5 votes of no, yet only 1 vote on the proper 2nd vote.
As some of you may or may not know (as you will see in my signature) I run a rental service for various gears mainly rings and weapons catered towards mayhem. I am not here to advertise it but collect some information so I can better tailor it.
I would like to know how many people would use such a service, those who would flat out never use such a service, and how many might use it for specific instances for mayhem or if they just feel like being uber for a week using the best gear for hunting when mayhem is not in session. I would also appreciate any constructive feedback.
Every trade with customers and people I rent gear for is collateralized, there is nothing I can do to stop someone from stealing an item, but I do require collateral above the market value of the item to give people an incentive to not take it, and in the worst case scenario the owner would receive more than the value of the item if it was stolen. Not to mention the thief would have support cases brought down on them for breaking the terms of the contract and committing a trust scam.
I would also like opinions on whether prices are fair or too high etc. I won't link to the thread in this post, you are welcome to use my sig for that. I will also add answers in the poll concerning prices, please only select those if you have actually looked at my prices and explain why you answered whichever way you did.
Again I am not here to solicit people to use the service, but to look it over and pretend you were a customer or potential customer and provide feedback accordingly.
I also have ideas about an investment fund around the service where people can buy shares in it, and then receive discounts on rentals as well as dividends from the income each month. This would also allow people to use their shares as collateral for renting items in the service. So if you had 20k invested and you wanted to rent a 30k item you would only need to come up with the 10k difference at the time of the rental, and you would get dividends off what you just spent. Similar in concept to getting global rewards for hunting on an LA but instead of cycling ped and getting kickbacks its renting items and getting kickbacks. I actually have a fully fleshed out google doc explaining it but that would have to be a separate poll and post on that but as far as this post is concerned if you could comment on whether that sounds like something you would use or not just based on the basic idea I would appreciate it.
