Not sure what exactly you're looking for, but I've dealt with dreamhire before and I was generally pleased with the transaction.   It was a purchase of used equipment though, so YMMV.  They've got a few schoeps items.  It's pretty expensive, but probably typical of what you'll find from a professional audio rental house.  (price listed is a daily rental.) 

   

   Schoeps CMC5/MK21   Subcardioid microphone   $40.00
   Schoeps CMC5/MK5   2-pattern cardioid/omni microphone   $40.00
   Schoeps KC5   Active 16' colette cable   $30.00

These prices come close to the 15% restocking fee I would pay if I bought them blind and decided to return them. - Noam
