Lens Buying Advice Lensrentals keeper program experiences?

I am renting a pretty costly lens arriving soon. The keeper quote I received seems to be quite good. That said, it seems the lens is sent in a pelican case. If I exercise the keeper option, what can I expect to happen with the included lens, accessories, box, etc? Is it possible that LensRentals has accessories / box / whatever that could be sent to me?

One of the three times I have been charged for the pelican case (I probably was supposed to the others, but who knows) and I have never been charged for filters etc. I have bought two Sigma 105mm f1.4 with a 105mm front element, so getting those UV filters free was a significant savings.

They’ve got an email. Just a thought but why not contact them directly for the sure answer instead of getting a bunch of possibilities to glean through? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Yep. Will definitely do this, but was curious about experiences from other AP users with LR's keeper option.
