Is there a way to put some type of button that I can select as a buyer to say a seller may be afk.

I have made 2 offers to 2 different sellers but no response at all, would be nice to be able to send you
an alert or maybe not due to newbies who can't wait???

Just a thought.

Not sure what AFK means.... but the sellers do not have to respond (either away or not interested but not willing to send a REJECT anyway).
eBay or Discogs work the same: all offers have expiring time and will go dead when this time elapses.

Counter-offers also do not force the buyers to respond, they just expire if untouched.

Offers can eventually be re-offered as-is from the seller but I don't see that happening often.

I do close shops of sellers who haven't visited the website for more than 6 months, there are the ones most likely to never come back again.

Historically, since the best offers started in 2012:

  • Accepted = 68%
  • Expired = 18%
  • Rejected = 10%
  • Reversed = 3% (transaction ultimately cancelled)
  • Superseded = Next to 0% (another offer/buy made the offer obsolete)

So I'd say offers are nearly twice as likely to expire than to be rejected.
