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?

I had imagined he had already commited to selling it elsewhere and didn't have the knowledge of ettiquette To simply say "I am compelled out of correctness to sell to the offer I responded to first, I apologize" Or something to that effect.
Yah what do you need , I have a most everything else in this hobby to sell now post divorce. Buying was easy now the hard part selling!
