When a seller behaves badly

I'm currently in a chain going through conveyancing and expecting to complete in the next few weeks. Things have got strained due to there being issues further up the chain and sellers have sent us a quite rude email through solicitors based on a misunderstanding on one of the solicitor's parts. We had some issues with the survey picking up some stuff as well showing the house is in worse condition than it looks (nothing major but niggly stuff which will cost a few k to sort, but we're already paying at the ceiling of what the house is worth due to crazy market). Anyway, between that and the seller being so rude it's just made me feel really pissed off and taken the shine off the move. It all seems so stressy and it's hard to focus on the positives. Especially since in the last few months since making the offer there are other houses coming up on the market for similar or less money in nicer condition!
Anyone else been in this position and ended up falling in love with the house once it's all been ironed out? We're hoping this will be a 5-yr stepping stone house
