My pet peeve

I thought this was 'bout leaving that 1 sheet of paper on the roll and putting the lid down.

This works both ways, I hate when a seller lets my offer sit for the whole 48 hours.

I made an offer a couple weeks back on an item, I was trying to take advantage of 8% eBay Bucks and asked the seller if he could please respond within 24 hours when the 8% expired, I rescinded the offer when I didn't hear from him and he sent me a nasty message, which I forwarded to eBay.

I would hate that too.

The only thing I could think of is maybe he's was waiting to see if other offers would come in; but regardless I would think 24 hrs is plenty of time to evaluate an offer if you really want to sell a card. I get offers all the time, I always respond, just sometimes the answer is no.

I've had that happen. Hell I offered 95% of the BIN price and asked if he could possibly ship that day. Told him I needed it by a certain day which gave him an extra day's leeway. Never got a reply at all. Later sent a message asking if I offended him or if he just chose to ignore my offer. He ignored that message too.

Personally, I prefer to end any potential transaction in a positive way because you never know when you may want to deal with that person again, whether here or on Ebay. I've had a few good deals with people on here and a few where the deal just did not happen because we were too far apart. I hope they left the deal okay with me even though I didn't meet their price or vice versa. Every situation is different. It's not personal, so I don't see the problem with at least a final message saying "No, thanks", if nothing else.
