You just open yourself up for getting trolled.
Either use a guild seller or cash up front.

He said he had 3.4 Million, so assumed 255k was nothing to him. I sent it and he decided to be a dickhead and said he will hold it for 3 days, which seems to be the limit. Just cause he felt i was being a jerk for selling it at that high value. He offered that amount to begin with. We need to shorten the COD time to an hour or so. What is reason for having the right to hold someones stuff you dont want for 3 days?
that one guy who always overpriced everything finally got trolled.
Except he wasn't overpricing it himself... The price was offered by the buyer, not the seller. If you're a normal person who wants money, you probably would just accept the offer too yourself even if it is overpriced because the BUYER offered it, not you.
Most likely, some troll purposely gave the seller a random high number, and the seller was like "Oh, okay then. If you want to pay that much, I'll gladly take it" but then got trolled.
Sure, the seller could've refused the offer and explain that it was overpriced, which is the nicer and more right thing to do but your average human isn't honestly going to care, just like how your average human isn't going to care about the fine details of the wording of a post.
There are people who are not like that at all...A few months back, I was looking for a Spriggans armor piece...forget which one...saw on zone chat someone was selling...whispered him a price...he whispers back that the price I offered was too much and sold it to me for 10k less than what I offered...

GET THE [snip] OUT WITH THAT [snip]
Op, you did nothing wrong if he offered you that much. 3 days is far too long.
