There are certain types of lots that "make an offer" is more appropriate than others. For example, rare/scarce cards, a large mishmash lot w/various years condition, or perhaps a card that you honestly don't know what it's worth are good candidates for "make an offer" sales.

What does not make sense is a when someone has a PSA 6 1967 Topps Mickey Mantle and their is a pretty long track record of it's recorded sale, etc. I prefer the seller should cut to the chase and list their asking price and not utilize "make an offer."

Also, "make an offer" is going to open you up to more communications and therefore as a seller I think you owe it to the people that take the time to respond to their offers even if if you don't like it...They took the time to write you and you owe them a courteous and timely response.
