BEST ANSWER
Well Linda......I think your agent made you an offer you can't (or shouldnt) refuse !!
I'd take a copy of that email into his manager's office, and say you'd like to take him up on his offer. The manager or Broker of record can always assign another agent to handle your listing.
Now.....it's possible your agent has a strange sense of humor, and he or she thought they were being funny, but that attitude and response certainly doesn't come across funny. . We all can make mistakes, and I have seen prices of homes change in a day......obviously because an error had been made. I don't know that I would change agents due to a mistake....however....a snippy attitude isn't the way to hande any issue.
If your relationship has been affected and negatively impacted by his or her unprofessional response, then you need to move on. This is too important of a transaction not to feel comfortable with the agent you have selected.
Best wishes in whatever you decide....
