Field notes
The marketplace models each rental around a physical shipment rather than a meetup: an accepted request unlocks shipping details, the lender prints outbound and prepaid return stubs, and the borrower chooses a 7-, 14-, or 30-day window. Sample listings span boxed PC games, Sega CD, NES, PlayStation, and modern console titles. The page also defines excluded inventory, replacement values, refundable holds, arrival photos, and separate lender and borrower ratings. Its beta notice means these procedures are described rather than verified at scale.
