It is disappointing to lose the item for less than you were willing to pay simply because you didn't ask the question first and I am sure it has happened to more that a few of my FL brothers and sisters!
Actually, I feel that it isn't cricket for the seller to agree to a price after an auction is running if they didn't have a BIN set from the beginning. I suppose it's hard to resist temptation, though--take the offer or risk selling it for less. But if that's an issue they could have always set a BIN to begin with, and added Make an Offer if they were flexible.
I really can't blame anyone for asking the question of a seller. As some find out, the seller may agree.
Cheers,
