AggieDave 6 #6 June 28, 2005 $25 a jump or $50 a day. You're responsible for having a staff packer pack the last packjob when you're done at your $5 expensive (plus tip if you are a good person and tip packers).--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Jeth 0 #7 June 28, 2005 Its $30 a jump from manifest (includes packing). The gear shop rents rigs for $75 a day, but they don't have very many in rookie sizes. Also, that doesn't include packing."At 13,000 feet nothing else matters." PFRX!!!!! Team Funnel #174, Sunshine kisspass #109 My Jump Site Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelpdiver 2 #8 June 28, 2005 QuoteSQ2 in Eloy - $67.50/day, $35/half-day, $30/jump With the bonus that at the SQX outfits, there are many ways to have that rental fee credited to an eventual purchase. And they're not the only ones doing something like that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superman32 0 #9 June 28, 2005 $60 per day/ $30 per jump + tax (more expensive if paid by cc) Packing is not included. If you get the gear packed you have to have it packed by a packer b/f returning $7.00 If your canopy is unpacked $3.00 riser hookup and you must disassemble it and fold it b/f returning. It gets expensive, but I really want to get some experience before I end up buying Inveniam Viam aut Faciam I'm back biatches! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyangel2 2 #10 June 28, 2005 Quote (more expensive if paid by cc) Tisk, tisk, tisk. You are not allowed to say that, since it's really against the law for people to charge more if the customer is using a CC.

bisqit999 0 #11 June 28, 2005 just went from $50 to $85 per day where we jump....won't be jumpin for a while because of that one and it'll still be a couple months before I get my own gear. I think thats a little steep. And I think per jump went up from $25 to $40. YIKES!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eUrNiCc 0 #12 June 28, 2005 Wow... that's expensive. My DZ charges $15 per jump or $60 per day for nice new-ish rigs.Egad, A BASE life defiles a bad age. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybytch 273 #18 June 29, 2005 Quote just went from $50 to $85 per day where we jump.... Wow, that's quite an increase. Did they get new gear or is it the same stuf you were paying $50 a day for? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slug 1 #20 June 29, 2005 Are you responsiable for the cost of the main if it gets lost (cutaway) or cypress fires? Charging big $$$ for "Gear rental" is a interesting way for a DZ to treat their students after they've already paid the big $$$$ for AFF. Compare the cost of renting a used rig for a day vs renting a car, the value of the car vs the value of the rig.The profit margin must make it worthwhile Damn wonder if there would be a market for mail order gear rental, maybe by the month? $200 plus shipping R.I.P.

JohnMitchell 16 #21 June 29, 2005 I agree. Let's see, $1400 for the container, $1200 for the cypress, $1200 for the main, $800 for the reserve, that's $4600, full retail, I'd say. At $30 a jump, you've paid for the rig in only 154 jumps. Got a lot of profit left after that. Our DZ is charging about $10 a jump, I think, but you bring it back packed.
