In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour.

    So its morally ok for the seller to hide information. If the op hadn't asked for the price reduction would it still be ok?


    If he did then I agree but from what we've seen so far there is no evidence that anything was hidden. You can't really hide something you knew nothing about.
    It's nothing , not nothink.

    If the buyer claims he didn't see the email, can we still claim something?

    After gazundering to the tune of 10K do you not feel you've got enough out of your sellers?

    I have to admit, its lovely to see somebody actually get what they deserve for once, it so rarely happens in reality.

    How do you even know the seller received this email?

    I'm replying to this which assumes the seller knew.

    I'm glad. Your behaviour just before exchange was abhorrent. It's not that often karma strikes so fast. Personally, I reckon the seller knew and that's why they accepted your extortion. Enjoy your bill.

    That doesn't show or even assume that the vendor knew anything about it. It's simply a guess by.

    Its a reply based on the seller knowing, not a suggestion that the seller did know.

    Your involvement was pointless. It was a reply to someone else which you failed to understand.
