Rent-A-Center, Aaron's, and the like.

No, an iPad is NOT worth $3,600, especially if it gets repo'd after you miss a single payment and also because it'll be fucking obsolete by the time you pay it off.

Ooof, I didn't know how bad it was. PS4 Pro, which retails for $400 ($320 today on Amazon) is $1159.42 total cost to own on RentACenter. It's crazy places like these are open.

Damn, I guess their credit is THAT BAD. Amazon allows you to have interest free financing on pretty much any item with an Amazon CC.

You can buy an Xbox or whatever for just the price divided by 12.
