Confused about other EA calling now our house is up for sale

We finally put our house up for sale on Monday just gone (was supposed to be earlier) and since Monday we have had 2 other estate agents call us up and ask why we choose the agent we went with.

I have also not long ago closed the front door to another EA, which is just around the corner asking why we chose not to call them considering they are the only agent on the estate, and why we went with the agent we have.

I'm starting to worry now we have chosen the wrong agent, id this normal for estate agents to just call?

All 3 have said if we are looking to buy let them know and they can do a great deal for us, is this just their way to make sure we look at buying through them?

I must say we have no board outside the house, just rightmove

    There's no right or wrong agent to choose, you go with the one you want!

    They're looking for business. It's probably standard practice to look out for "for sale" signs and start hounding the owners to buy.
  • Thanks was worried lol. Fingers crossed the estate agents we did go with phones soon with a viewing, instaed of other agents calling to ask why we went with this agent lol
