Default Shady Realtors, lost a deal to one today.

I've got a contact I've been e-mailing for two months. He came to town this weekend and I spent two days showing him every community in the area. Pretty late in the evening we go back to my office and I print out a handful of additional listings for him to go over.

He ends up driving around on his own and stops at an open house, which was one of the homes I printed out for him. He tells the agent he is working with me and she says something about leaving me out of the deal. He's a good guy and says "not without Mike"

He left town on Sunday and today calls me to run out, take a few photos of the place for his wife and to make an offer.

I call the listing agent and she tells me there is an offer in but they will wait for my offer before deciding. I give her a verbal for asking price on her answering machine and tell her it will take me a few hours to get the contract together. Before I can get the offer on paper she calls back and says her seller has accepted the original offer.

I'm a little new to RE sales but this smells of cow poop. What are the chances she already had a full priced offer in this market?

I sell enough that I do not need this deal and it will actually cost me more time (which is also money) to go after her, but it sure seems like this woman should rot in hell.

Opinions?
