    That is fucking absurd. I rented a house with two guys in Oxford, at the end we left it how we found it and they tried to say we'd damaged loads of shit - it was retarded. It basically took us 4 months to get about 80-90% of our deposit back (about 1600 quid, because fucking lol Oxford.)

    We got it back though. Fucking pricks. What do they expect really, people to just roll over and lose that kind of money?

    I know a few people who only carry them in work. Once it's clocking off time the phone goes in a desk drawer and isn't touched again till the next day.

    He's clearly trying to put doubt in my mind and intimidate me to make me back down and make it easy for them. Has just e-mailed me saying "blah blah, you should have got your own inventory/you will lose" but has already dropped talk of going to court. Told them they should take it to the independent disputes service.

    I've had problems with annoying LLs in the past but never to the extent of this. I mean, even if I had left the house really dirty and so on, chucking away a few things and cleaning up does not in any way cost £800.

    Amazon seem like top blokes, ordered a pretty expensive book once and it arrived badly water damaged, alive with molds and mildew (I suspect it was done by my own Customs service) and they dispatched a new one right away without argument. Top blokes.

    Welcome to Canada btw. Assuming you are Pacific time, I'm 3 hours ahead of you. You know it's a large country when it spans 6 time zones.

    Been there and done that, fuck them dicks. Leave security deposit as last months rent and bug the fuck out. Fortunately never been in a position to give more than a months rent as a deposit.

    Funny note comparing Russia and my country. Mine is so small that if you took it and made 1 km wide strip it would barely be the length of Russia.

    This is why everyone should always take dated photos of all the rooms the day you move in, for evidence of preexisting damage.

    when i moved out of my last place... well, 2nd day i moved in, i was broken in to, and they took the doorframe out.

    a week later the landlord put it back in with cement and it looked shit with cracks in the walls and bare cement holding it in - they never repainted or anything. i complained 5-6 times over the years but nothing was done.

    when i moved out they tried to bill me for redecorating lololol.
    Hello? Oh, hello! I'm sorry it's a very bad line. No, no no... but that's not possible, she was sealed in to the Seventh Obelisk after the prayer meeting. Well, no, I get that it's important... an Egyptian Goddess loose on the Orient Express. In Space. Give us a mo....

    ... don't worry about a thing, your Majesty; we're on our way.

    So. Dead. Fucking. Tired. Chicago all last week. Internet died early Saturday morning but was back on first thing Mon AM. Spent all day Sat working on the pool. All day Sun mowing. Watched breaking bad, small town security (god why?), and a bit of le blob before zonking out.

    After this week, I'm on vacation for 4 glorious weeks (assuming I live that long).

    The last place I rented not only did I take a photo of every flaw, I made a list detailing them. Then, before signing the contract I made the landlord sign that he had received a copy of the list and was informed of preexisting damage. Yes, annoying but I received 100% of my deposit back with having to ask.

    They used silicone to fashion a jellyfish-shaped body with eight arm-like appendages.

    Next, they printed a pattern made of protein onto the "body" that resembled the muscle architecture of the real animal.

    They grew the heart muscle cells on top, with the protein pattern serving as a road map for the growth and organisation of the rat tissue. This allowed them to turn the cells into a coherent swimming muscle.

    When the researchers set the Medusoid free in a container of electrically conducting fluid, they shocked the Medusoid into swimming with synchronised contractions. The muscle cells even started to contract a bit on their own before the electrical current was applied.
    etc
