So you may take out a $20,000 loan for a boat, but to assure the loan company they will get their money either way, they request a lien on your vehicle. And if you don't pay the loan company, they then get to take your vehicle. However, it usually only happens when it relates to bail bonds in the US

    For people complaining about the price, you need to first determine if this tool will result in time savings. If your billable rate is $100 per hour, and this tool costs $250, then this would pay itself if you can reduce your labor hours by 2.5 hours. If it saves that amount of time, or more, then this investment makes financial sense. If not, then dont buy it. The analysis is very simple, so think about how this would improve your specific job.
