This is horrible. Hopefully KitSplit goes out of business soon. What’s the use of the company? Might as well lend out gear through Craigslist. Too many companies relying on the honour system.
- mars4rp 7y agono, so many companies are there to collect the omission without the burden of dealing with consequences. No skin in the game. if they rent out their own gears they go out of business soon, but it is okay to lose someone else's property without any downside. It works I win, it doesn't you lose!
- jdreyfuss 7y agoThese kinds of sites are exactly that: niche Craigslists. Since they are marketplaces, they see their job as connecting two groups that want to engage with each other (in this case, camera owners and people who want to rent a camera), and anything beyond connecting people has nothing to do with them. It's best to think of these kind of sites as digital telephone poles with flyers and act accordingly, but it's hard when, in an attempt to grow their user base, they exaggerate the value they offer and make people think they're safer or getting more out of them than they really offer. Those kind of tactics deserve to be called out
