In fact, when I'm laying out a floor plan I have a little Altoids Tin full of various-sized rectangles cut from a sheet of cardboard (to an architectural scale) that I can easily rearrange and explore different layouts and spatial relationships.

(Use cardboard or similar under the front legs, if needed to avoid scratching the floor.) 

Example - rent cardboard furniture for $1 per month. 

There was evidence that the mice had gotten into the back of the fridge and chewed through the cardboard piece, but it seems like if any were inside initially, they would not have stayed through the delivery process.2) If the mice did in fact come with the fridge that I bought, do I have any recourse with the company that sold and delivered it to me?

This needs to have been consistent for the past two years and you must reasonably be able to expect the same level of income going forward.You are an individual who has a net worth exceeding $1 million, either individually or jointly, excluding the value of a primary residenceYou are a general partner, executive officer, director or combination thereof for the issuer of the offered securitiesA bank, insurance company, registered investment company, business development company or small business investment companyA business in which equity owners all fall under the category of accredited investorsAn employee benefits plan, trust, charitable organization, partnership or company with total assets greater than $5 million

They will still accept a cashiers check, but they will have to verify the funds with the issuer which could delay funding for a day.

If you do not supply blinds, you are opening yourself up to everything from sheets over the windows, tinfoil, cardboard, etc.  

But I consider them opportunities to open dialogue about what the issue really is. 

@Brandon M. is correct in saying you should involve a securities attorney but you don't need a series 7 license to sell interests necessarily as there is an issuer exemption available so long as you follow the rules.
