We put a cash bid on a house last year. Agent said to make your "best bid"; that there wa going to be others, and that there was to be no negotiating. Got a call from the agent while on the golf course, saying that the lowest bid required financing, and did we want to raise our offer. No way. Seller went with the financed offer, which fell through. Agent called back, asking if we still wanted the deal. Are you kidding? Not with this kind of gamesmanship.
