Exchanging this week, noticed property put back on rightmove

I looked at rightmove this afternoon and noticed that the property I'm exchanging on this week was put back on rightmove three days ago.
When I click on the property it does state 'Sold STC'. I spoke to the agent last week re. the exchange and completion dates and everything is proceeding as planned. It strikes me as odd that it was put back on the site three days ago.
Is this standard EA practice? I'll call the agent tomorrow but does anyone have any thoughts of this? Could it simply be to show that the EA's have some sales? Thanks

This seems to be happening often now - probably so the agents are showing they've sold a property. And give them a call anyway to be absolutely certain. Most likely all in order.0

Thanks for your replies. My offer was accepted beginning of September so it's been a long process to get to this point. Don't think there's anything untoward going on but you've helped put my mind at ease.0

If in doubt ger a friend to call the agent and say they are intersted in viewing. See what they say.0

I think as there are so few properties on the market at the moment agents are desperate to get more and that's why this is happening - they want to advertise how great they are to other potential sellers.Anna :beer:0

Was walking past the EA we bought our house from in Friday, and our house is still in their window with a sold sticker on. We completed 9th April 2010...
