Transparent pricing?

Please make pricing transparent, what I charge and client what they pay when I’m trying to change how much I’m charging for items, it’s a nightmare how I have to keep changing my price to meet their cost.

Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous

You need to jump through several hoops to be able to rent a gear!
Despite having all my details, not having an active post on social media in six months is what ruled me out. I wonder why being active on social media is the criteria on who can rent out a camera in 2025! Ridiculous. I’d rather go elsewhere!
