Tenants taking washer and dryer - Need advice please

In a bit of a complicated situation.. When I bought the place it was sold as-is. Since the current tenant in place is a realtor, she was aware of what that entails. Upon signing a 3 month lease they mentioned the washer and dryer being theirs, so i removed the washer and dryer addendum from the lease. Come to find out, it was the sellers. The tenants received a notice of non-renewal a while back, and are scheduled to be out by the 6th. Now what do I do? Do I have any recourse in this situation? Do I just let them go and be done with it without stirring up the pot?

I would let this one go....Its probably not worth your time to try to prove anything in small claims court. From now on dont supply a washer/dryer. 

I should add that the one time I did supply them for a tenant they were a 'gift' from a friend trying to clean out a storage unit. I provided them as a 'courtesy' for that one tenant and specified that I would not repair them if needed. Two years later they did need repairs and tenant decided to junk them and buy her own.
