The X100V is still in high demand, so selling a pretty much brand new unit second hand will be simple and you should still get a very good price for it. I'd rather use it for a month and, if you really don't like it, resell it for a small hit and take it as loan for de facto renting the camera.

I do exactly this about every third camera. Renting for a week really only gives me time to tinker, but not to bond. I just bought a new Canon M200, shot it for a month, and sold it for the same price. So I was really only out shipping and tax. Much cheaper than renting for that period. I saw the camera in a store back in 2017, and thought it was just so darn cute. So I finally scratched the itch.

I also think this is the best way to stay in touch with what other brands are doing.
