  I have leased small business copier/fax/scan machines x 4 from Prosource for the last 7 years. I have paid a monthly fee for the units since that time. I have decided to not continue with the leased equipment. I did not sign the new contract to renew my leases for the 4 copiers. Per the agreement, my options at the end of the lease are to extend the lease, buy the equipment, or return the equipment. Per the contract signed, the following applies for return of the equipment -
  Return of Equipment: If (a) a default occurs, or (b) you do not purchase the Equipment at the end of the Term pursuant to a stated purchase option, you will immediately return the equipment to any location(s) we may designate in the continental United States. The Equipment must be returned in “Average Saleable Condition” and properly packed for shipment in accordance with our recommendations or specifications, freight prepaid and insured. “Average Saleable Condition” means that all of the Equipment is immediately available for use by a third party, other than you, without the need for any repair or refurbishment. All Equipment must be free of markings. You will pay us for any missing or defective parts or accessories.
  I HAVE AGREED TO RETURN THE EQUIPMENT BY BRINGING THE EQUIPMENT BACK IN EXCELLENT CONDITION TO THE BUSINESS. I AM BEING TOLD THAT MY ONLY OPTION TO RETURN THE EQUIPMENT IS TO PAY SHIPPING CHARGES THAT WILL RANGE FROM $800-$1000 AND THAT REGARDLESS OF IF I RETURN THE EQUIPMENT MYSELF, THE CHARGES APPLY. I am not willing to pay to return equipment I am not purchasing. I have paid near $600 monthly to this company for 7 years. The company should be able to come pick up the equipment the same as they delivered it, or they should allow me to return it myself in good condition to their location without these very large charges. I feel I am backed into a corner to spend $1000 for nothing and was not told up front about the large costs involved in return.

  We have received and reviewed *** ******* complaint
  regarding the return of the leased equipment. As indicated by the customer
  according to the terms and conditions of the lease agreement: “Return of
  Equipment: If (a) a default occurs, or (b) you do not purchase the Equipment at
  the end of the Term pursuant to a stated purchase option, you will immediately
  return the equipment to any location(s) we may designate in the continental
  United States. The Equipment must be returned in “Average Saleable Condition”
  and properly packed for shipment in accordance with our recommendations or
  specifications, freight prepaid and insured.”
  
  The agreement referenced is between the lessor (the leasing
  company) and the lessee (our customer). The customer has acknowledged
  responsibility for returning the equipment to the designated location in
  saleable condition. Per the terms and conditions quoted by the customer, the
  return of the equipment includes properly packing for shipment, with freight
  prepaid and insured—this is the $800-$1,000 cost that the Prosource account
  manager has attempted to estimate for the customer, and is the only cost being disputed
  per the description provided. Precise shipping instructions, including the
  designated return location, will be provided by the lessor and will determine
  final costs.
  
  Should the customer elect to deliver the equipment to a
  Prosource office, the equipment will still need to be returned to the location
  designated by the leasing company, as the Prosource office is not the
  designated location, thus still incurring a shipping/transport cost. To provide
  the customer with additional options to assist in minimizing expenses, the
  Prosource account manager is preparing paperwork related to a buyout to keep
  the equipment, the cost of which may be less than the cost to return the equipment
  to the designated location.
  
  Our understanding is that the disputed amount is
  $800-$1,000 rather than the $49,392 initially claimed, and that the customer
  has indicated her acknowledgment of the terms of the return, which includes
  freight prepaid and insured. On February 15, 2024, the Prosource account
  manager indicated that we would have readily worked to review all options
  available to the customer to close out existing contracts had we been notified
  in advance of the intent to discontinue our business relationship.

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, reasons for rejection are included below.

  The return shipping costs are entirely unreasonable and were not disclosed in detail in the lease agreement. The lease agreement is vague on return shipping costs, only stating leasee agrees to return shipping costs. $800-$1000 return shipping costs are ludicrous. There is no reason after a customer has used a businesses' services for 7 + years and has paid that company $49,000+ in fees for equipment, that the company cannot pick up their own equipment. Especially given they offered to do so without charge if I were to continue with their services. I have no interest in continuing with them.

  The terms of the lease
  agreement between the leasing company and the customer—including the terms for
  the return of equipment—are outside of Prosource’s scope and control. Once
  return shipment instructions are provided to the customer by the leasing company,
  Prosource can provide an exact cost for managing the pickup and transportation
  of the equipment to the location designated by the leasing company, or the
  customer may arrange alternative shipping if that option is more
  cost-effective. To further dispute the terms of the lease agreement, we
  recommend that the customer reach out directly to the leasing company.

  I am unaware of the leasing company involved to which Prosource refers. 

  I am only aware and have only ever communicated and worked with Prosource. 

  If a leasing company was involved, why has Prosource not mentioned this prior to now?
