If for no other reason than to explain to a seller why you are rejecting a counteroffer for only a few cents more than your original offer. In this case, I had less than a buck left and thought I would give it a shot. The counter was pretty reasonable considering, but I don't want to load more credit on my account at the moment, so I have to decline because all I have left is what I offered!
I know it wouldn't help in most cases, but I have also seen what I felt were overpriced items that I would like to offer on, but half off isn't even in the ballpark and you can't offer less than half (another weird policy/rule that makes little sense, given not everything is priced within reality). I suspect these sellers are unreasonable to begin with and a message to discuss a "reasonable" price would be pointless, but it would still be nice to try.
Maybe COMC feels that part of their service is to protect the seller from potentially bothersome correspondence?
