Is it offensive to negotiate the commission?

Is it offensive to negotiate the commission? Obviously, I want to pay as little as possible, but I also don't want to offend my future agent. I understand that they need to get paid and I want them to enjoy working with me and have my best interest.

How can i get out of a buyers agreement?

I met with an agent, explained I didn't want a long term agreement, maybe till school was out, as I was only looking at size, areas, prices right now. She said standard was 6 mo. I said I preferred shorter, she said it's what we agree too ( as in she and I make our own terms). I signed the agreement, ask for a copy, she said she would scan then in and email it to me. 10 days later, I'm requesting a copy again. She gave me an excuse for not getting it to me. When I received it, it said 6 mo. Not what I requested. I then questioned her and she said no less than 6 mo as that was what all their office's do. But it was to late to redo the time on it. I don't want to work with her. She will not get my listing, nor will her office. But she says I'm locked in until after the 6 mo. Which means the fall and I can't sell in the fall, it will be off season for selling a family home.
