What is wrong with "real-time" responses? I don't see a need to wait at all. Once you click on the ad or message the seller or buyer should have to decide then and there what the next step will be. Just like real life.
Etiquite Regarding Response Times to Offers
I wonder if sellers realize that when someone makes an offer to them, if they wait the entire 48 hours to reply (or some significant portion thereof), they are holding up the buyer from using their resources elsewhere. I find that quite annoying. Either reply yes/no or counter, but don't hold a person up!
The 48-hour lock on agon creates a disincentive for a seller to make a counter offer too. If you make a counter, you have to wait 48 hours for a response by the potential buyer, therefore precluding you from taking other deals. The 48-hour "lock" is troublesome in more than one way. Agree?
