Yea, i know the Rent to Own scams. I havent seen the billed ones, myself, but mine are like you go to there store, find something you want, and then pay a weekly bi weekly or monthly payment. I got a laptop from them one time for a temp job. It was 29.99 a week so grab your little dollar general calculator back out and crunch that number times 80 weeks. Okay, so now you got $2400.00 total payment. The catch with it is that this laptop is about 6 months old, used and has a market price of $500. Yay you say when you paying almost 2 grand more for something. I hate R2O places because of this. It was awesome for a temporary solution for a little bit of time. 2 weeks is all that I needed the lappy for so it was definetly better than paying $500 when i didnt need it anymore.
BTW, this company was Rent a Center, if we are sharing are hated for companies that screw you over.
