Seller Agent Messed Up Coubter Offer Price

Hello all,

I have been back and forth with negotiations on a place. Seller agent  responds back to my counter " we will accept $33,500." So we wright up the acceptance of 33500 and sent it their way. Now we get a response a day later saying I got confused and miscommunicated. The seller will not accept anything lower than $34,500.

This is a real bummer, once I lock in on a number I don't like to readjust. Is there any creative way to make this a win win without one of us having to fork up the loss? 

Thanks! 

P.S. I would like to add that my agent confirmed with him if he meant to say $33,500. And the agent responded   "Yes, $33,500." This is all on email.

    give them the 34.5, and ask for a concession on closing cost?  maybe a repair that has been overlooked?  get them to buy you a home warranty?
