P201 Yoke(s) for Rent/ monthly

I have P 201 yokes that I am not using but do not want to sell. I was thinking of renting these.

They average about $14 to ship each way.

Looking to rent them for $30 a month flat fee.

Renter would have to:
1) pay for shipping back and forth ($+/- $30)
2) pay for monthly rental ($30)
3) leave a deposit via PP ($250)

Upon return of Yoke, the PP fees will be refunded.

Any interest as I am not rebuilding any engines this winter.

A+ for being an entrepreneur, but...

If you require a deposit + $30 + $30/month, people would be better off buying their own and selling it afterwards.
Considering that anyone who needs to rent an engine yoke (basically a newbie) is going to take a lot longer than a month to rebuild their engine, this would cost quite a bit.

For example, in 2014 I bought a new QSC yoke for ~$200 (current cost is $228), then sold it a year later for $175. Net cost: $25.

Blimey, at that rate a rental yoke would've cost me $1,830 + shipping!

(yes, I'm slow at building)

Seriously? Why don't you do a rent-to-own plan? Like those places where you can rent-to-own a $300 TV for $1000.
