Rental Agreement

RENTAL AGREEMENT

THIS EQUIPMENT LEASE AGREEMENT (“Lease”) is made and effective by clicking on the “I agree, submit order” or equivalent button, by and between RGnG LLC, (DBA, Rent Outdoor Gear, RentOutdoorGear.com), (“Lessor”) and current user (“Lessee”). By clicking on the “I agree, submit order” or equivalent button, Lessee agrees to be bound by this Equipment Lease Agreement and all the Terms and Conditions therein, whether or not Lessee has read them. Lessor may at its sole discretion modify this Equipment Lease Agreement and all the Terms and Conditions therein at any time. By clicking on the “I agree, submit order” button or equivalent, Lessee indicates acceptance of the modified Terms and Conditions. NOW, THEREFORE,

1. Disclaimer

Every effort is made to assure descriptions and prices are correct. Lessor reserves the right to correct errors as needed. All prices and availability are subject to change without notice.

2. Lease

Lessor hereby leases to Lessee, and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor, the following described equipment (“Equipment”): shown in the “Cart” during checkout and on the itemized Invoice in the “Product” column.

3. Shipping

Lessee agrees to pay both outgoing and return shipping charges at the time of the initial transaction, unless parties otherwise agree. 

  1. Use, by Lessee, of shipping methods other than those arranged for by Lessor is a violation of these terms, and may result in the application of late fees.
  2. Assumption of Shipping Liability:
    • Lessor cannot guarantee a specific time or date for delivery. Any shipping time or date given by Lessor is only the best available estimate. Although late shipments are generally rare, RGnG LLC recommends starting your reservation at least one day in advance of your planned departure date to help ensure you receive your items in time for your travel plans.
    • While we do our best to ensure that your product reaches you as quickly and as trouble-free as possible, we simply cannot guarantee that the shipping carrier (for example, UPS, USPS, or FedEx) will not damage or lose your items. RGnG, LLC cannot be held liable for any inconvenience or alteration of hunting and travel plans or costs incurred resulting from shipping delays, lost or stolen shipments, or damaged shipments of rental products. Lessor’s rental period does not start until the shipper delivers or makes the 1st attempt to deliver Equipment to the Lessor. In the event shipments are lost or delayed, Lessor will refund Lessee for any days equipment was not available during the Lessor’s reservation. 
    • Once Equipment is delivered and signed for at Lessor’s chosen address, Lessor must inspect the order against the shipping bill and immediately report any missing or damaged items to RentOutdoorGear.com via email with photos of the packaging, shipping case, its contents, and damaged items to Shipping@RentOutdoorGear.com   If no damage or missing items are reported within 24 hours, customer assumes all responsibility for damaged or missing items and hereby explicitly releases RGnG, LLC  from all liability and responsibility thereafter.
  3. All items are shipped with signature required and cannot be left at the lessee’s residence or door-step if a signature is not obtained. RGnG recommends shipping orders to your workplace or sign up for UPS My Choice or FedEx Delivery Manager to request home deliveries when you are there, or re-route your delivery to a UPS or FedEx store, shipping hub, or service center where it can be held until picked up by lessor with proper photo I.D. and signature.

The term of this lease shall expire on the expiration of the term of days shown on the order receipt.

In the case of a shipping delay or malfunctioning Equipment, Lessor’s only liability to Lessee is for the portion of Rent applicable to the time period that the Equipment was non-functional or delayed in transit.

In the event such are levied against the Equipment without Lessor’s consent, Lessee agrees to reimburse Lessor in full for those charges.

19. Reservation Cancellation Policy

Lessor strives to provide excellent customer service that includes providing accurate inventory for Equipment available to lease, and managing reservations and shipping to help ensure Equipment orders arrive by the requested start date. Our system is automated such that the moment you select and click “I Agree, Submit Order” or equivalent, with partial or full payment for a reservation (order), our system reserves the Equipment selected for your chosen rental dates. Our system does not automate returns and changes. Your reservation prevents others from reserving the same individual products during your reservation dates, so additional time and effort is required to update inventory and modify reservations. Additionally, payment processing fees apply that we must pay to process refunds. Therefore, reservation change fees apply and reservations may not be cancelled or changed online by the customer once submitted.

  • Reservations (orders) can only be cancelled by contacting customer service at Service@RentOutdoorGear.com or by calling (855) 355-3337 during normal business hours. All changes are subject to penalty fees as described herein or at the discretion of Lessor where not explicitly governed by these terms. Lessee’s payment card will be refunded the full amount for cancellations less an order cancellation fee of 10% of the full reservation value for reservations cancelled up to 30 calendar days prior to your rental start date, less 20% for orders cancelled between 29 and 14 calendar days prior to the rental start date, and less 25% for cancellations within 14 days of the rental start date. Shipping fees are refunded for all cancellations not shipped. If Equipment reservations were made in the same time period described above as they are cancelled, the maximum cancellation penalty is 10% of the order value. Orders cannot be cancelled less than 3 days prior to the reservation start date or any time after the Lessor has transferred possession of Equipment to shipper (UPS). Equipment orders that are shipped, but not accepted or signed for by Lessor will be charged 100% of the 4-day lease rate plus shipping fees. An additional fee may be added if levied for items shipped to an FFL.  If Lessee is denied a transfer of any Equipment after the Equipment has been shipped (including denial for lack of proper licenses, permits, or background check denial), then Lessor will be charged 100% of the 4-day Lease rate and shipping fees. An additional fee may be added if levied for items shipped to an FFL.
  •  Changes to Reservation Dates: Reservation dates cannot be modified online by the customer. Reservation dates can only be modified by contacting customer service at Service@RentOutdoorGear.com or by calling (855) 355-3337 during normal business hours. Date changes to a reservation will incur a 10% re-booking fee if total reservation days are reduced by no more than three days compared to the original reservation. Reservation durations that are reduced by more than three days will incur an additional 10% penalty on the value of the additional rental days removed in excess of three. For example, if a reservation is shortened by four days, there will be a 10% penalty applied to the first three days removed from the original duration, and an additional 10% penalty (20% total) on the final day of the four days deleted from the reservation. The remaining amount is refunded to the Lessee.
  • Change fees do not apply to Reservation extensions scheduled and approved prior to the reservation start date. Extensions made after the reservation start date may be subject to late return fees. (See Late Returns).
    • Lessee acknowledges that Equipment reserved previously may not be available for desired new dates if additional days or entirely new dates are needed. Timing of the original lease order reservation has no bearing on future availability for new dates. If the order is cancelled as a result of Equipment unavailability for new dates, the Reservation Cancellation policy applies. If only a portion of the Equipment is removed from a reservation, the Reservation Cancellation policy and penalties apply only to that portion of the reservation cancelled.
    • Items can be added to a reservation up to 4 days prior to a reservation start date or prior to shipment without any additional penalty fees. Normal rental rates apply. Expedited shipping may be required and billed to customer in some instances for late changes. All added Equipment is subject to availability.
  • Changes to Reservations (Product Substitutions): Product substitutions can only be made to a reservation by contacting customer service at Service@RentOutdoorGear.com or by calling (855) 355-3337 during normal business hours. Substitutions for products of equal or greater value are allowed without penalty up to four calendar days prior to the reservation start date (subject to Equipment availability). The difference in the rental cost for the substituted items and their associated shipping fees will billed accordingly and paid in full to secure the reservation change. Substitutions for an item of lesser value will incur a 5% penalty on the higher value item removed from the reservation up to 14 days prior to the rental date. A 10% penalty will be incurred on the higher value item removed from the reservation up to 4 days prior to the rental date. No substitutions are allowed less than 3 business days prior to the reservation start date or any time after Lessor has transferred Equipment to the Shipper, typically UPS, FedEx, or USPS.
  • Early Returns:  In the event return early from a trip, you may return your leased equipment early. You may be refunded up to 75% of the remaining value of the lease term after your return is received and inspected. For example if you have a 10 day reservation, and you ship your leased items back on day 5 and they arrive at our facility on day 7, you would be eligible to receive a 75% refund of the lease value for days 7 – 10 of the lease, and calculated as the difference between the 10 day rental cost and the 7 day rental cost, multiplied by 0.75. 
  • Waiver or Refund of Penalty Fees: RentOutdoorGear.com employees have no authority to waive penalties or fees for individual customers based on special circumstances. You may submit an email in writing to coop@RentOutdoorGear.com requesting relief from penalties for extraordinary circumstances including hunt closure due to wildfire, a death in the family, or for enlisted soldiers being called to duty, provided that proof is supplied. Requests will be considered and refunds distributed as decided by RGnG LLC management.
  • Order Cancellation by RgunsNgear.com: RGnG, LLC reserves the option to cancel any orders where the purchaser has not abided by these Terms and Conditions. If RentOutdoorGear.com chooses to cancel an order, you will receive a refund of the full amount of the purchase less a cancellation fee equal to 10% of the total order amount.

  • Returns & Warranty Service
    • There will be no refund issued for any rental Equipment damaged by the customer regardless of when it is returned during the reservation period. In this scenario, Lessor may offer to provide a suitable replacement item of equal or similar quality and function so Lessee can finish the remainder of a hunt. Replacement Equipment will be shipped and provided (Leased) at Lessee expense. The Lessee (customer) is responsible for the replacement item’s rental cost, taxes, and all shipping fees, including expedited shipping.
    • If Lessor Equipment fails during normal use or is not performing in a satisfactory manner, contact customer service immediately at Service@RentOutdoorGear.com or by calling (855) 355-3337 during normal business hours and describe the issue to our staff. If RGnG LLC is not able to remedy the problem by phone support, email, or by other means remotely, a Return Authorization will be provided, and if possible, a suitable replacement will be shipped to the nearest domestic, commercial carrier drop-off location of Lessee’s choosing if Lessor agrees AND time permits. Lessee may be liable for all replacement Equipment costs if customer service or the chosen repair facility deems that the originally leased Equipment was in satisfactory working order and or user error or misuse caused the malfunction.
  • Severability and Governing Laws: This represents the entire agreement between Lessor and Lessee.
