Thanks for the insight anigbrowl, I'm a 21 year old film student, so I'm definitely still learning all of this. I didn't truly expect a 7.5% reward returning the gear, I returned it to do the right thing. It was a far shot, but with a three thousand dollar budget for the project when he offered me compensation and asked what I hoped for, I thought why not, $600 isn't a huge amount to ask. After all it's rental of two lesnes and a microphone for three days. They might not even have orders for them the weekend I requested...

I still truly believe that being called a liar and hung up on trying to explain my position was an unnecessary line to cross when dealing with someone who had been consistently renting from them withut issue and had returned their lost gear notifying them within 24 hours of receiving it. But then again, that may just be me. :/
