Interest in an interconnect


Hello there, this is my first post here. My business friend and I have been kicking around the idea of starting an online interconnect "library" where it would be possible to rent interconnects. Our plan would involve a small one-time fee of perhaps 5 or 10 dollars, and would include your first rental. Thereafter, a one week checkout would also be about 10 bucks. Additionally, with each rental we would include a formatted page for you to fill out with your current system and a brief (1 paragraph or so) review of the sound with that particular interconnect and, ultimately, what was purchased; subsequent rentals of that interconnect would include these previous comments so that comparisons could be made.

Is there any interest in this sort of setup? What about pricing? If you have any helpful feedback, positive or negative, please post and let me know.

Thanks for your time!

The Cable Company does not run it's lending for free. You pay 5% of the cable value by credit card which they will point towards the particular cable that you buy. If you do not buy a cable from them, you are out that money. And the Cable Company cells all their cables for absolute list price so the service is worth it to some but not for me. I
have never paid list price for cables. Not evem at a brickn'mortar shop. It is cheaper to purchase 3 or 4 different cables at the Gon and cell them back at the same price to someone else. I am only out of shipping. Dale
