Deal just went South maybe

On 12 -11-13 had agreed price from bank and sign general as is contract.

My agent received email from listing agent on Jan 2nd just waiting for bank to send official contract, but was a done deal. Should have paper work in 2 days. Just received phone call from my agent this morning that another offer is on table.

While this house has room to go up, just feel like will look for the next deal. We went through the counter and re counter with bank in Nov and we accepted banks offer in early Dec. So being a bit upset / not in mood to now start playing a best and final after bank has already gave us an acceptable offer in early Dec.

Appears listing agent is one to blame and my agent says while their is nothing I can do, but she can report him to the real - board etc. if we don't get a signed contract.

While could play the game of offering more, I think time is worth money also and need to look for next one if we don't get a signed contract.

Any advice on playing this game ? If we were in the early stage I would see having to play for a final number.
