As the blinds were custom he will likely leave them unless the windows in the new place are similar size.Pok3mon said:I am in the same boat ATM the house I am moving too has blinds apparently cost £800 he has offered to me for £200 but I don't want them (I thing they make rooms dark I am a net curtain guy) but I am worried about the damage left behind if he removes them. I know they say make good but the house is spotless.0 -

I'd forgotten I'd asked for money for my two lifesize bronze garden lions - buyer not only refused to buy them, he also stated they had to be removed before completion. Also wouldn't pay for the oil, it was an extremely unpleasant sale. Unfortunately they were fifteen foot up on the house walls, it took four people to lift them. I bought them with my inheritance when my Mum died so they had sentimental value, but I was moving to a tiny bungalow where they would have looked ridiculous. I decided to cut my losses rather than try to sell them and very luckily managed to remove and rehome them for free with a local person. I expect the dodgy old Ikea chest of drawers my seller left me probably weighs nearly as much as one of them, no wonder she left it!£216 saved 24 October 20140

Our vendors wanted £300 for the fridge and £150 for the washing machine, we refused as were planning on buying our own (FTBs). They ended up leaving the washing machine and it was broken, it didn't heat the water. We had to pay £20 to Curry's to take it away.0
