    What reason is the LL giving for charging you for the blinds? Were the blinds broken, dirty, or what?

    If two of the louvers were broken, somebody broke them. That would be more than "wear and tear".

    Stains, if they can't be cleaned, would be the same.

    If you feel the landlord unfairly billed you for repairs, then take him to court. Most likely it won't be worth the trouble.
