Reference for Bava Metzia 155:1

מפני רעתה

because of its poor quality.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Then we may assume that he willingly sold it, and his repeated demands for payment are due not to financial need, but to fear that the purchaser might retract. ');"><sup>1</sup></span> Now if a man wished to sell [a small field] for a hundred <i>zuz</i>, but finding [no purchaser for so small a field in spite of much seeking] he sold [a larger one] for two hundred [<i>zuz</i>] and made repeated calls for his money, it is obvious that he [the purchaser] does not acquire it.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' For it is certain that he sold only under pressure, though a hundred would have sufficed him, and now he presses for money to buy a smaller field with the surplus. ');"><sup>2</sup></span>
