Hire Things – things for hire!

Who out there would like to “test drive” things before they buy them? We do this already with cars, but why not for many other types of things?

Here’s a comment from someone reading my Geekzone blog entry about Let Use It in New Zealand…

This is kinda cool, if successful, I can “hire” or “borrow” mobile phones and stuff, then test before I commit…. Hmm… other uses also spring to mind.

I’ve often thought companies should allow users to “hire” stuff out on trial for a small fee and then if they wish to buy, the “hirage” charge is wiped off. I’ve bought many a dud and had no recourse.

So companies out there… put some demo product on the site that people can hire… and advertise they can try before they buy!
