I'm not opposed to them working to get a higher price, but the tactics are intentionally manipulative which I do think is worthy of complaint.
For example, on further questioning this morning the agent disclosed there were only 3 offers including ours. So either he's thick, or Friday's fourth offer didn't exist.
If we'd had been invited to negotiate in more normal or less opaque circumstances there wouldn't be an issue.
I'm not a massive fan of estate agents but to complain when they work for their client to get a higher offer seems a bit off, it is a large part of why they exist.
