  1. hey bro, if you know me, i was NEVER handed anything, not even my lift. I spent 25 years on my back, in the gutter, under jacks and jack stands. And get this, ive only owned a real floor jack since like the year 2000 maybe a little earlier than that but not much earlier haha. I have changed trannys using scissor jacks, on my back, in the street more than a few times. I remember having like 5 of them because i hit up the local "pick and pull" and scored some from the wrecking yard. I thought i was rich because i had extra STOCK scissor jacks from those boneyard cars to get my job done. even my very first car blew the tranny and knowing NOTHING i changed it out in the street. Pops didn't want no oil on his driveway. Yes, at 16 i was swapping tranny's and even my engine. It was either that or i had no ride. Nobody gave me shit. I learned though....kids nowadays (i admit, even mine) get to call AAA and have pops help them get it fixed. It's ok i feel like i sacrificed so my kids don't have to suffer like i did. I don't spoil them, i teach them.....but they still got it way easier.

  3. so how are you going to account for DOA items? You ship it to me and I say doesn't work or vice versa.... You know the answer both sides are gonna say is, "worked fine when I shipped it" also, who's interpretation of " normal wear and tear" is gonna be used? You know there's going to inevitably bd minor wear on I and ill be damned if I'm going to be charged for theme tool. and as far as shipping I concerned, is return shipping included in the rental fee? Better have tracking and insurance as a must. all these factors drive up the cost of mail order rentals and sometimes make the hoops and cost not worth the effort. In addition making a contractual agreement on an item sight unseen isn't always the best business practice. have you thought out how long and how many rentals it would take to recoup your initial cost of the tool and how much longer after that the tool can remain in use to garner profit? Your time and effort have to be factored in also, its not going to ship itself and how much time and effort would it take to fight a deadbeat customer??? just looking at thus from a business standpoint is all. Great idea for a storefront, logistical nightmare for mail order
