I want to implement a queue functionality for my rental subscription store. It needs to work just like Gamefly or DVD Netflix where a customer pays a flat monthly fee for the service. When the product is returned, we need to see the next product in their queue, so that it’s ready to ship out.

Here is Gamefly’s description of the “Q” I’m looking for: https://gamefly.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360035499494-What-is-my-Q-
