Now, economically, on one hand we already know that used goods are not valuable. If an item is a few years old, or has one single scratch on it, it ends up worth one tenth of what is was worth new and packaged.
It just so happens I was reading about a similar thing called a Library of Things. The idea is that communities buy one rarely used item to share, so that everyone doesn't end up buying a power cleaner that the Mexican only uses once or twice a year.

It's out and out communism in Martha's Vineyard. Terrifying to think of the impact on the economy. Jobs lost, wages down (more, I mean) and people won't be able to afford their own power jet, for example.
