I ask this as today i picked up an air-conditioner from a company who advertised it free on Gumtree.
It came complete with vent kit, A1 condition, and looking on the internet retails at £250!
Aparantly this company have just moved in to new premises with aircon already installed.
I'm so chuffed, that although it won't be used till next year, i would never have been able to afford something like this.
