    He has your offer of 70k and that's all you know for sure . Tell him it still stands but if he doesn't deal soon you have progressed to buy something else in the UK. Nothing worse than auctioneers ringing you up like that . If he knew you had 70 and he is offered 75 let him go with it and not be wasting your time

    Exactly great advice. Put all the pressure on his side.
    Just looking for more money he is

    Don't be worrying yourself thinking about me.

    I wouldn't get lost between the highroad gap and the sweep.

    Your father's offer of 70 k was used at the auction as the "opening" bid, I bet. Now he wants you to bid against yourself.

    Neighbour farm went up for sale couple of years ago ,i went away and got approved for loan and put in a strong bid of 11k per acre and was told by auctioneer there was higher bid so i backed out . Farm still up for sale following year with a different auctioneer and sold for 9 k. I was half sorry but the best plan might be to approach land owner and deal privately

    we had similar experience at home.. guy was looking for 20k an acre - guy selling though celtic tiger was still in town.. I offered 15k (still High) no deal was done. In the meantime I bought better land for 10k an acre, recently at auction the land I offered 15k for was sold for 11k an acre

    All down to greed. I wouldnt blame estate agents for this though. They only get paid if there is an actual sale. It must be intensely frustrating to have a willing buyer available only to have them turned down by the vendor, knowing that the property is likely to be left unsold as a result.
