well poop on that

So they countered us...and the pretty much barely budged. they came down $3k in cost with half the seller's assist we asked for...without the full assist we just can't afford to close, that's kind of not negotiable. Also they're dead set on taking the sewing machine, despite leaving it in the basement where it was rusting it's got "sentimental attachment"
....So now I'm looking at other houses while we debate if it's worth it to try and counter them. I think the house is over-priced and it's been on the market for over 6 months...
