EA rings me direct an hour later and says someone offered 190k it was turned down offerer wasnt in position to complete anyway. they are looking for 200k so will you meet them in middle at 195k and she would tell them we could complete very quickly as no house to sell of our own. i said ok we ll offer195k. she said after speaking to repo company she would get back to me. 1 week 1 day later nothing. so rang EA. she told me my offer of 190k was rejected there looking for 200k. i asked her if she remembered our conversation last week when we upped our offer to 195k to meet in middle? she said -oh sorry yes that was rejected too they still want 200k. but the managers at the repo company are looking at all offers in again tommorrow cause they want it off there books. i just said fine and put phone down.:mad:
