<human>: So basically my girlfriends uncle, lets call him Bob had texted my girlfriend that he had an old couch we might want for our new apartment. We drove to his house (about a 5 to 10 minute drive) to check it out. While there he offered us a matching chair and ottoman, as well as other odds and ends such as a space heater and a coffee table. All this stuff was in his garage not being used. 

The couch was a little beat up but ultimately because it was free we decided to take it as well as the chair and ottoman. Luckily my gf has brother who drives a large truck so we were able to arrange for him to help us drive the couch back to our new place.

When we go back to the apartment with the couch it took us a good hour to get the couch to the door and attempt to get it in. We had to take it up a staircase to get it to our door. After trying to get it through the door with finally took the hinges off to attempt for more space and ultimately failed. The couch spent the night on its side on our covered balcony.

Someone (i'm honestly not sure who) told Bob that we couldn't get it in our apartment and it spent the night outside. He was furious. He was super mad that we ruined the couch and wants it put back in his garage. Am I wrong in thinking that he has no say in the fate of this couch and I just want to call goodwill or salvation army or just someone to take this couch.

Returning the couch requires cooperation of the gf's brother becuase he has the truck. It also requires at least 3 people to help get it down the stairs and into the truck. It's a huge pain in the ass and I just want to say, "hey man, fuck your couch".

What can I do about mediating his desire to have the couch that he gave us back with the reality that my back and arms are dead from  carrying it yesterday and I really have no strong desire to return the damn couch. Who is being unreasonable?

Give me a shortened version of the text
