I despise BOI's. I've seen them turn against the buyer many times when the sellers buddies/fan club run to their aid and gang up on the buyer. They will do anything to demonize the buyer to protect their buddies shady reputation. I have been on the losing end of such BOI's when I got screwed over by a guy and even had proof he screwed me over. Never again. They are a joke and only cater to further the reputations of the popular crowd.
I suspect there is more to this story than you are letting on.
Sour Grapes comes to mind.
I may not be very smart, but what if I am?
