Confused Buyer(Seller Doesn't Want to Sell)

I had a property under contract and initially the sellers only wanted to give me two weeks to close but we immediately requested more time for appraisal and title search and they gave us an additional week. The earliest the lenders could schedule the appraisal was for the following week, so we fought for more time and they extended us an additional week. So I go back and request to extend closing by two additional weeks and they say no so we cancel the deal only for them to put the property back on the market and will likely still be there beyond the date I requested to have closing extended to. It seems like they don't want to sell the property. What reason would a seller have to not extend closing?
