If you solicit offers, shouldn't you respond?


I recently made a very reasonable offer on an item that was being sold on a strictly "make an offer" basis (there was no option to buy the unit at the asking price, just "make an offer". So I offered the asking price less shipping).

The seller never responded, so I sent a PM. No response to that either. My offer has expired with no word from the seller.

Isn't there, simply as a matter of courtesy and responsible behavior, an obligation to respond to reasonable offers if you're soliciting them?

Last year at my local Acura dealer, one of the salespersons took my handwritten offer, crumpled it up, and tossed it in the trash can alongside his desk.

Bought an Infiniti later that same day at my target price.

How's that work for you Acura car salesperson?
And screw your sales manager who allowed you to be an a**hole.
