Rent vs buy

Renting is cheap for a job and expensive for a year. This works out where the line falls for one machine: real rental pricing on one side, your purchase, carrying and resale figures on the other.

That listing isn’t published on the marketplace any more. Pick another below.

The numbers come from one operator’s published rates, so the tool needs to know whose.

Where these numbers come from

The rental side is a live call to the same pricing service the booking panel uses, in long-term mode — one 28-day billing cycle at the operator’s 28-day rate, with rental protection and the marketplace service fee included, exactly as they would appear at checkout. Nothing about the rate ladder is recomputed on this page.

The ownership side is arithmetic on figures you supply. We hold no data on what a machine costs you to keep or what you could sell it for, and the page does not pretend otherwise.
