[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We sold and took the thermostat, but replaced it with one of equal value that just wasn't as user friendly for us.   Buyer said that the thermostat we took was one of the reasons they bought the house, so they'd like to have it back.  Of course we gave it back, but thought it silly that anyone would buy a house for a thermostat.  [/quote]

They didn’t buy the house for the thermostat.  They told you it was one of the reasons they bought your home (vs others ).  Why wouldn’t you just buy the same damn thermostat for your new home instead of taking theirs?  By the way, you may say it was of equal value but I bet it cost less and you thought you could get away with it.  Otherwise, again, you would’ve just bought yourself the type you liked for your new place. Stingy and you got caught- good![/quote]

Not sure why you think it's great that I "got caught." I'm already sharing a story that doesn't cast me in a favorable light, so I'm not sure why you'd pile on with nonsense.  We had an Ecobee in the house when we showed it and replaced it with a Nest.  We had intended to take it off the wall for the open house, but the buyer gave us about 1 hour of notice the day it went on the market and gave us an offer 3 hours later.  We never got to the open house, and they buyer really didn't want the Nest.  I think that's weird, but ymmv[/quote]

If you loved the Ecobee and the Nest was the same price, why didn’t you just buy another Ecobee? Your story doesn’t make sense.[/quote]
