Agreed with others. Your semblance of seller/buyer respect or etiquette is sadly not shared by most. Given most sellers want the most for their item and the quickest/least hassle route, gives the buyer no leg to stand on unless a deposit and or signed contract has taken place.
I would voice your displeasure and see if a signed intent contract and refundable deposit via PayPal or credit card can be placed (basically something that allows your money to be returned in the event the seller is a douche).
Worse case you walk away and go on the hunt again.
