love the concept. a couple of comments:
1. I would love to post my gear there (I have a bunch of high-end Canon L lenses), but there's no faq or anything about how I'm protected in case my equipment gets dropped by the person I rent to. What happens, for example, if my equipment gets stolen?
2. How do I get paid? Is it a bank deposit? Cash? Bitcoins?
If you want more listings, you should make the process of lending easy and safe.
- rickyc091 13y agoI was looking for this info as well and I found some answers in the terms + services. 1) You can redeem up to $5000 for your equipment. Basically their credit card will be on file and if something happens you can claim it. I couldn't find anything on the payout sides of things.
- cjbprime 13y agoBut what happens if the $5000 you attempt to charge to their card is declined?
- pbhjpbhj 13y agoThat's a lot of risk to carry as a lendee (lessee?). I'd probably want to insure against that risk if possible. Also how are you checking that the lendee's CC can cover the amount of the current equipment value?
- derwiki 13y agoThe policy will probably change soon to be the value of a replacement vs some arbitrary amount. Luckily, most gear on the site isn't super expensive.
- derwiki 13y ago1. As mentioned in other responses, CameraLends will replace your equipment if something goes awry. 2. Paypal currently. Would you prefer something else? You're right; reducing risk and making everything seem worry-free is going to be key. Thanks for the feedback.
