Tell them the offer expires on Monday? Then move on with your life. No sense in getting too worked up about how other people choose to behave.

I expect if they aren't talking Turkey with tbc then they are either having discussions with another party or they haven't got another offer on the table but tbcs isn't in the ballpark where they can have meaningful discussions.
If the owners are a couple of old(er) people in my experience that also makes things complicated as they generally don't have the same sense of urgency to get things agreed.

Eight days after making our offer we've still not heard back from the vendors. The estate agents have said they've left a message and sent an email.
When we saw the place again last week we were resolved to buy it, but in the meantime another, much cheaper property in an area that's slightly less desirable and with schools that are slightly less good is coming back into contention even though we'd ruled it out before.
We're very privileged in so many ways to have these kinds of choices to make, but it doesn't make it any less of a headache.
