if I agreed with my Buyer that the market value was List - 10%, and the house had been on the market for 4 months without selling, then I'd have no problem making the offer.
Of course, we still don't know if you're closing on it prior to selling your home, or will still seek a contingent offer.

I will not make a contingent offer. And it will be a big benefit to me to wait til spring.
I do.not.understand the reluctance on the part of these realtors, to make a bona fide offer that you want to make.
I just don't get it. I would find someone who wants to work for you.
I don't understand this either. Whatever the sellers' earlier reluctance, it appears they are eager to sell now. They've moved out and are about to have the second open house. If the house is indeed overpriced, the sellers are probably hearing that over and over at this point. I don't understand all the contemplation of "what ifs" on the part of the agent that may never happen.
Nor have I ever understood the notion of insulting a seller. I can't imagine a seller being so insulted by an offer that they wouldn't contemplate an offer they consider reasonable if it came from the earlier potential buyer. If I were the seller, I'd just be thinking, "Ha! I win!" I can't believe that a seller would turn down a reasonable offer out of spite.
Gotta revise the odds, now that I know the realtor is also reluctant.
40% house is withdrawn from market
50% somebody else offers and buys it
5% OP ends up with the house
5% realtor goes to meditate in Nepal.
Wow, you are giving me 5%?
