Claim: Music stores succeed as parents don't need to pay for the full price when renting an instrument, which is the same for Menchey Music (a family-owned chain of eight musical instrument stores in Pennsylvania and Maryland); though there are rent-to-own options if desired by the client.
Evidence: Menchey Music Service, Inc. is a family-owned chain of eight musical instrument stores in Pennsylvania and Maryland. From its store locations and through direct arrangements with schools, Menchey Music sells and rents musical instruments and accessories, offers music lessons, and provides musical instrument repair. With rent-to-own options, children have the ability to keep their instrument when the payment is complete. Music stores tend to succeed with school instrument rentals because parents don't want to pay full price for an instrument their child may not continue with.
