The seller should have put in a clause similar to, "subject to lender approval of short sale".
If they didn't, then the contract might require them to bring the money to closing in order to provide clear title. That's probably not going to happen, but maybe you can get them (or their agent) to cover your expenses if they didn't include the proper contingencies.
