We were quite chuffed to learn that rentoid has been featured in a wikipedia article on peer to peer renting.
It also points to the reasons why we believe rentoid will have continue to provide a service members love. From the article:
Peer-to-peer renting services and Platforms are often referred to as Ebay for rentals…
The fast development of this market is due to a combination of the following trends:
- Networking infrastructure and high-bandwith penetration reaching a level allowing Social Networks and Consumer-to-consumer marketplaces,
- Limited storage space in dense urban environment preventing consumers to keep all the goods they occasionally use,
- Increasing environmental concerns of consumers leading towards limitations of waste of resources and overconsumption,
- Evolution of consuming behaviors from owners to users.
We couldn’t agree more. You can read the Wiki entry by clicking here.
Although it also points out we’re not on our own, (some other similar sites recently started) it also tells us we providing a service people want the world over!

Hi Rentoid,
I actually wrote the wiki, and thought to have you, hirethings, erento along. The more we are promoting renting as opposed to buying, the better we’ll all do!
Best to you and Rentoid,
