In a letter dated 10/1/08. DLL is anticipating a significant rate increase to take effect 11/1/2008.
Which leads me to this: With the current economic condition do you think manufacturers will start to finance thier own boxes in order to get them in the field?
Heck, if credit continues to dry up, what is the other choice? I think the number is 85% (number from 2003) of all office equipment is leased in the US.
The factories can't stay in business if the credit is not there. Could we actually see manufacturers leasing the equipment at Zero percent in order to keep the factories producing? Or would the factories subsidize and entice the leasing companies to extend credit in order to keep sales going?
Alot of questions that may or may not be answered. At some point in time the madness needs to stop!
