If they were still going back and forth on price, it's hard to see an obligation to wait with an offer in hand. But here the seller clearly could have waited a reasonable time for the OP to confirm payment method, especially where the OP had asked for payment method. Breach of contract, no, not technically IMO, but breach of etiquette, for sure.
EDIT TO ADD In light of Leon's post, clarifying that this assessment is based on taking the OP at his word as to what happened.
