   All I can say at this point, is that it appears to be a major sign of "caveat   
   emptor" ("Let the buyer beware," an English "proverb.")   
      
   The idea that comes to mind that, as a counter-ploy, the dreamer   
   (buyer/interested party) could simply tell the land-owner, "That's OK, I'll be   
   going to buy (X) elsewhere anyways.  Good luck finding yourself a new buyer."   
      
   (Then turning and walking out the door.)  Either: the fisher / land-owner will   
   adjust *quickly* to make the sale then and there, or not, in which case, the   
   buyer needs to start packing and looking for new digs.  It might help to   
   already have a more    
   suitable spot scouted out already.  That way, the buyer's gambit is already   
   valid, and it is the *seller* who's now the fish.
