johnniethe Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 We found our own place rather than going with my husband's school-provided housing. We've been happy with this, but there's no air conditioner in the apartment, and that will be a problem soon. Since we bought all our other furniture (including washer/dryer and fridge), is it out of line to ask (politely of course) if his school might be able to provide a new or used air conditioner? The tall ones (which it seems like we'll need for a two-person apartment) can be quite pricey. If the school can't or won't provide an air conditioner, where are good places to look for decently priced ones? Homeplus? Hi-Mart? Are air conditioners something that can be bought used? Thanks!

chromei386 Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 I think you'd be pushing your luck asking for them to pay for an air conditioner. For buying one, check if someone is selling one via online classifieds - maybe one second hand- but quite new, i.e. they bought it 2 months ago and now are moving overseas, etc.And make sure you get good warranty! You can sometimes negotiate extended warranties (on site) down to 20% of the asking price as these have a huge profit margin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero999 Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 No idea, I supose they don't have to supply you with one, you knew that the place didn't come with one so I suppose you're stuck with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
