Title: Keyboard rental?
Post by: dante on Sat, 13 May 2017, 09:49:21
I don't know if it's a stupid idea but have you guys thought about a keyboard rental service?

Basically choose a keyboard, length of rental, and then receive, use, ship back; with an option to buy at the end if you want to keep it?

Yea it might be a pain in the ass but on the other hand you may make back many times its MSRP.

We have done this upon request from time to time...not a terrible idea as we have lots to choose from in the older keyboard models which may have apparent defects (LEDs out, etc). Perhaps this could put them to good use...
