I have been thru several deals. First and foremost DO NOT do a deal that is a purchase disguised as a lease. If the company goes bust or the machine is garbage you are stuck paying on the lease.
Had one try to get me to do it promising all sorts of rebates. They went bust and I was contacted to see if I had a claim against them. I did not since I didn't do the deal. The third party leasing company would still have to be paid and any prmised rebates would die with the provider.
If you have room you can get one that pays you a traight commission. A friend of mine owns his. If you get enough action on a straight commission deal, after the lease is over you can decide if it is worth the capital expense.
I agree, that's why I turned off my PMs. Almost all of them would ask for more info about something I'd posted when they could (and should) have asked in the related thread. After all, isn't one of the definitions of a forum "an assembly, meeting place... for the discussion of questions of public interest"?
I am curious about doing the same thing. I have a perfect location for a drive up ATM and would like to hear what some of your PM's said. I don't need any specifics, but are you leaning one way or another?
