Slightly irksome is the implication that because a person has changed their mind on more than one occasion, they are instantly some kind of fraudster, pulling a con trick on the world despite having nothing to gain personally from doing so.

I'm not 'crying about it' but I ain't exactly jumping for joy either !.I don't believe I ever implied the seller was 'some kind of fraudster' merely that there is currently no way for a buyer to be aware of a sellers previous activity and I'm not convinced thats a good thing.You get that information before buying a 99p item on eBay!.As for being locked into a deal to buy a potentially 'rotten tomato' as you put it.This information would become known to you much earlier in the sale process and therefore you would not have racked up the legal fees,search costs,mortgage set up and property valuation fees as I have.Stamp duty and removal costs apart I am liable for the entire costs for the purchase of a property that I'm not actually going to buy.The point I was trying to make is that if I had been aware of the increased risk of this situation arising (as the seller had done this before) I would have been very wary of proceeding with the sale.
