Hey anyone heard about or used this service before?

You can rent lenses for 1, 2 or 3 weeks, and they send it out to you / get it returned via postal service (US only). Might be useful if you need a lens for a particular event, project or photo shoot... or even if you want to try before you buy.
I've hired some equipment before (flashgun) for a once off wedding shoot, and it does make sense especially if your budget doesn't allow for the investment at that particular time. That was from a small shop in the city; this one is a novel concept in that you can do everything online and they ship it to your door.
Now, I wonder if there is a similar service outside of the US?
