unconsumption: SnapGoods: Like Zipcar for Gadgets — CrunchGear.com Think of SnapGoods as Zipcar for stuff. You reserve an item – an iPad, a bike, a pommel horse, a chainsaw – pay a small amount per day ($10-$15 or more for pricier items), put down a security deposit using your Paypal account, and you pick up the item after meeting the lender or, barring that, you pick it up and drop it off at a place local to you both that acts as an escrow point. Available in the New York City area, with plans to expand elsewhere.
