Please review this scenario again: Andre offered to sell to Brianna a personal watercraft that was not running very well for $500. Brianna was interested

Please review this scenario again:

Andre offered to sell to Brianna a personal watercraft that was not running very well for $500. Brianna was interested but not willing to pay $500. She said, "I'll give you $400." Andre said that he would think about it. Later, the same day, Andre asked Charlotte if she would be interested in purchasing the personal watercraft for $500. Charlotte said, "Would you consider $450?" Andre said he would think on it. A few minutes later, Dylan who had heard that Andre wanted to sell the watercraft accepted Andre's offer to sell for $500, and they agreed that he would pick up the watercraft the next day. A few minutes later, Brianna called saying that she accepted Andre's offer to sell the watercraft for $500. A few minutes after that, Charlotte called and told that she accepted his offer to sell the watercraft for $500. Andre told Brianna and Charlotte that he had already sold it, and they are angry, threatening to sue. Additionally, through no fault of anyone, there was a fire at Andre's home that night and the personal watercraft burned. Dylan was not happy. A dispute ensues regarding what obligations Andre has, if any.

What effect does the accidental destruction of the personal watercraft have on the deal between Andre and Dylan?
