Stuff your vendor left in the house you bought

drugs that had a street value of around £2000 .Had been in the house 4 months before discovering it. Police were called. The stuff was hidden in a large jar, like a pickled onion jar in a chip shop.


That explained the constant knocks at the door asking if xxxxx was home.

I found a cordless electric cheese grater in one of the cupboards in the kitchen! Quite glad that's the worst thing reading these replies haha.

Yeah, well with all those anti-terrorists laws buying large volume of acid has become risky...

My brother found a bathroom buried in his back garden.

We moved a couple of weeks ago and found an old bedstead, broken washing machine, circa 50 copies of Asian Bride, bins full of rubbish, cupboards full of food, wardrobes full of cr*p.... Yet they managed to take every light fitting and curtain rail - even the Velux fitted blind. What are they going to do? Wait until they find a house with that particular Velux? Install that particular Velux in their current house to save a few quid on a blind?
People are strange.

Not me but a colleague once moved into his new house and the bedroom had one of those built in cupboard type things with night stands for either side of the bed and overhead storage. On the top of this thing, hidden from view, he found a battery operated personal device, of what he described as unfeasible size.

He had actually bought the house from someone he knew, so took great pleasure in letting them know what they had left behind. Don't recall him saying that he'd returned it though...

When did Liverpool FC publish a guide to thriller novels?

2013. It was subtitled "How did Rodgers convince everyone he was any good?"

A tin tray advertising beer -An American who had converted his basement to a bar paid nearly £30 for it on ebay. Left in the cellar of my new home.

As it was a bit battered and rusty in places I was a bit concerned the buyer wouldn't be happy but I got a lovely email telling me how thrilled they were with it as it was so authentic !

Same move we realized we had forgotten to unplumb the washing machine so as the buyers were intending to gut the kitchen anyway so we left it behind intending to buy a new one once moved. We got to the new house and found our vendors had also left their's behind-and it lasted another five years.

We found loads of gay !!!!!! items in our loft.

We later was told the guy used the house as a bit of a
Film/recording studio for these kinda films.
For a few years we kept having post "samples" of that kinda
Film and for a few weeks had different people knock on the door asking for the old owner.

We felt uncomfortable with it all.

That was around 1997 two years ago when I moved out
The EX who kept the house while taking the shed and outbuildings
Down found loads more inc a full on old video camera under the floorboards.
