To me this sounds like the seller received an "I'll take it" email from someone else before yours, and they are just waiting to hear back from the buyer about how they will be paying, etc.
A couple weeks ago I had a similar situation happen to me. I had someone contact me about a card I had for sale. He asked me what the lowest I was willing to go on the card and I sent him an email with that number. He decided to pass on it for the time being, but then a couple hours later I was contacted by him, that he wanted the card. But not 1 minute before he emailed me to tell me he'd take it, I had another board member commit to the card, and I sold it for xxxx dollars....which ironically was the offer I sent to the other potential buyer.
Edited to add: I did contact both parties by email to let them know. I won't leave anyone hanging.
