ABSTRACT:
An Internet-based, computerized method and system enables renting real estate, furniture, and housewares in the same transaction. The same catalog of furniture and housewares is displayed to rental agents and to customers, but agents can see prices while customers cannot. System access is based on ranges of recognized Internet-protocol addresses. Thumbnail images link to enlarged pictures and lists of goods. Prices are totaled automatically, including tax. Agents place orders on-line. The system verifies the accuracy of orders and, if correct, returns a message that the order was placed successfully.
