    So as mentioned I have posted a letter to the vendor and still no reply.

    Maybe the EA would charge a lower fee to the vendor should they have dibs for people who would go through a mortgage with them. Who knows.

    Disappointed!

    I don't think its that unusual for a vendor to turn down a higher offer. I had that happen because the vendor wanted to sell to someone they knew - felt it would go through more easily. Same with cash buyers vs mortgage buyers. Its nothing underhand.
