Your decision to wait is a wise one.
Makes me laugh because I've had this happen to me twice now. I saw an item that I wanted but the price was too high so I made an offer. Offer was countered two dollars less. We went back and forth for the 3-4 times you are permitted but seller refused to lower price anymore. I finally ran out of times to make an offer and moved on but kept the item in my watch list.
First time this happened that item sat for over a year with no bites. Seller finally lowered price to the amount I had originally offered, not my counteroffer. I went back and purchased it but didn't bother to point out who I was the same person who made the offer from a year ago.
Second time, with a different seller, same scenario. Seller wouldn't come down more than three dollars. I ran out of offers and did the same thing to monitor the item. Again took over a year but seller finally lowered the price to my offer, my counteroffer this time. I went and purchased it but again didn't mention who I was.
They stick to their guns but so do I. They want the sale in the end and will always come down eventually. I am a very patient person but I usually win....
