@Patty18 : "My inspector didn't note anything so this is my fault, my problem!!"
That can not possibly be true! You are no expert, so you hired him because he is! It was his negligence that led to this problem, for not seeing thru the lies everyone else is telling. As an inspector, he must carry insurance to pay for mistakes like this. This is like taking a used car to an inspector, who fails to tell you what's wrong with it before you buy it....
@susieq : The only cruise I was ever on was on a Windjammer sailing ship built in the early 1900s. You could sit on the toilet and touch all 4 walls, and the shower head was simply in the ceiling, you closed the door and it was a shower!
Now, as I've gotten older I require a bit more luxury; a mattress under me not just ground, camping but with running water, etc. But I'd envision sitting out on my balcony watching the scenery more than holing up in the cabin. Still, that's still something to worry a...
@cocosmom : I'd have been unruly long before 2 weeks, my idea of hell! Cramped up, prison food, no working toilets. A nice Viking river cruise looks so good, but first you have to get there. Yeah, I could just float down the Mississippi River, but I want to see the south of France....
This is an outright, intentional scam, on the part of the agent/owner and the inspector. Your agent knew about the bill, it's her's and she owes it, plus the inspector is either brain dead, or knew about the problems and lied to you. To be licensed, both have insurance against this sort of failure....
I have a new, top of the line washing machine, too. It does a fine job, but has no low water setting at all. So now, I wait until clothes pile up a bit to do a load. It has some stupid locking mechanism, which makes it hard to soak something in Rit dye or bleach. It keeps draining the water out if I don't keep an eye on the cycle. Give me my old, spindle one, that would rip your arm off if you were stupid about it....
Oh, by the price I knew it was coming from somewhere in Asia, no big deal. I bought one little shirt for a ridiculously low price, just to see the quality of the fabric, sewing, etc. If it's good I might by more, if it's not I'm only out $10,...
