Sorry, changed that ;)

Even though it may break the deal for everyone else? In the meantime, you can't know if it will.

You aren't everyone else. You are you. Do what is best for you.

I would also explore if there is a way to make the deal a better option for you. Negotiate. If you've explored that, and it's still not, then walk away.

Yes. This sounds like a tactic to try to guilt you into taking a deal that is not in your best interest.
