Here is a excerpt of the email the seller's broker sent to my broker, verbatim with annotations. FYI, this boat was and still is advertised as "in Bristol condition" and my contingencies reflected that expectation, although after I noted a Bristol condition boat should be free of piles of seagull **** staining the canvas and hardtop, the broker conveniently deleted that photo from their ad:
“We will not be submitting any more offers from you with such unreasonable contingencies attached. If your clients expect to purchase a new boat of this size and class then you should up their budget by $8-900K. That said, I am surprised that you would even go so far as to submit such an unreasonable and open ended piece of paper which no one in their right mind would ever consider signing. Everyones time is wasted here and I will not annoy my client with any further “offers” from your clients. . . .(owner) was not happy with any of this nor was I. Inexperience is evident either in your clients or yourself and in future it would be advisable for you to coach your clients prior to submitting offers to anyone. The types of terms indicated on you addendum page are ridiculous on their face and possibly in violation of the terms agreed to on the previous pages. We have no intention of dragging our valued clients thru the mud and . . . (owner's) final response is “no thanks”.”
