This stands out to me even more when we are talking about a 5-figure offer. If I am willing to spend that kind of money on an e-bay item, it deserves the respect of a reply.
As a seller I often don't reply to offers, I consider not replying to be a reply, so apologies in advance Phil if I ever ignore an ebay offer from you. Insert smiley face here.

As a buyer my record for making an offer and having it accepted was in the 20 to 25% range, I politely explained my logic for the offer and said no hard feelings if the seller thought I was delusional. They may have thought I'm delusional, but they accepted.
