"...if you can't hack it, there's always some kid whose mommy and daddy are willing to pay the stupid move-in fees without blinking. "
Heh, like me! The 41 E. 8th St. Condo Association charges a fucked-up amount of money for moving in. I had to pay $50 an hour to rent the freight elevator (and set-up a time like a week in advance. There's a HUGE fee if you don't pay to reserve it in advance) and also had to pay some sort of lofty deposit charge in case there was damage to the building/elevator during our move-in. Luckily that was refunded. So all-in-all i paid $100 to move all my furniture in here. It was ridiculous. I also have to pay the same charges to "rent" the elevator when I move out! But we got everything in here within an hour so I think we'll only be paying for one hour next time instead of two. But either way it's still dumb.
Let's tour new apartments and then judge people's lifestyles over lunch! Kidding.
The moving fees are just too much. It's totally the principal of the thing! We just had a battle over a broken refrigerator shelf. They wanted to charge us $160 when we could replace it for $22 ourselves. It's like, REALLY? Get a life people.
