Had this happen to me. There was a small stain on the carpet that could have been removed but I ran out of time moving out.

Apartment kept my deposit and told me I owed them $2k to replace the entire carpet. I ignored them because I looked up the carpet, and it was $0.49/yd. All together it would have been less than $500.

Got sent to collections, and I told collections I'd pay if they could provide proof of $2k in damages, which was legally required in my state. Never heard from them again.

Where I live, that would be considered normal wear and tear and absolutely the landlords responsibility.

That being said, replacing carpeting costs much more than the carpet itself.

The materials would have been around $200, including padding and replacing the tack strips.

It was a small apartment

Had a supervisor like that. He knew where the line was but he was fully willing to ask things that crossed the line, just in case you were willing to agree to it.

She’s just lost a lot of weight since 2011

That poor landlord. She probably didn't even tip him.

Shocking what one can get away with if they're able to say and not worry about angering someone. Assholes and bullies figured this out and made it a way of life. I can always spot it in men, not so much women.

Anyway, saying no is a skill more folks need. Harder to learn if you don't start young.

And then he just takes it out of the security deposit instead
