“Sounds to me like he offered to replace them until he knew what the cost actually was. When my BF met my sister and saw her collection of designer handbags he asked how much that was worth and guessed a number that was closer to 150/bag.”
“I laughed and told him each was at least 1500, some north of 3k. He was shocked. It’s just…not something men know.”
“I was also to ask, is he that bad at maths or is he playing dumb?”
“It’s pretty reasonable to expect that someone has trained their animals to not destroy things, especially in that short of a time window.”
“Demand money in the amount for the items and replace them with what you like. He doesn’t get to say how you spend your compensation.”
“The total value is what actually matters on the bank statement… It literally makes no practical difference as long as their combined value is not more than what he said he’d pay.”
“I don’t get why he’s complaining. Can he not do math? Or is he just regretting that he said he’d replace the items? I bet it’s the latter.”
