You make excellent points. I hadn’t even heard of SnapGoods, NeighborGoods etc.
I’m imagining it not as a peer to peer service, but more along the lines of a car rental company that owns a fleet of things it rents out.
I think you’re right about the need to build a significant customer base rather quickly. My guess is that it might be feasible to first offer big expensive things that people don’t usually own already, like a fancy jacuzzi, a top end VR rig, a complete “wedding size” soundsystem and a bouncy castle. And once you’re known for those, work your way down into more normal consumer goods, guided by the requests of your first customers.

The items that Bauhaus currently rents out might be a decent starting list: https://www.bauhaus.info/service/leistungen/leihservice?show=All
