Linda,
If you made a written offer, and IF the homeowners signed it, I would recommend that you talk to a real estate attorney. My understanding - and it may be different in NY - is that once an offer is made and signed by both parties then you have an enforceable contract.
If it was not signed by the homeowners, and you "only" got their word that they'd accept it, then you may be out of luck.
Take heart, a nicer home at a better price is JUST around the corner for you.
