Trade Assistant (my personal pet peeve)

I know many of us have talked about sending countless trade request through the trade assistant and only getting 1 or 2 out of 10 or more responding be it for a trade or not.
What gets me is when someone sends me one and I reply back immediatly only to never hear from the person again. I understand that many times I may send a Trade Request for the same pin to multiple people and if they never answer, thats fine (technically), but if 2 people answer my request, I will do the trade with the first person who responded and have the courtesy to thank the other person and let them know I have already obtained the pin.
I mean come on, this person send's ME the request, I respond the same day and accept their offer, I put the pin aside and wait to hear from them. 4 days go by so I send a friendly reminder that I am interested in doing the trade thet THEY offered in hopes of hearing back only to never hear from them again.
Do you guys have this happen to you much? It just bothers me that they cant at least say thanks, got it already since I took the time to respond to them. Am I asking for too much common courtesy?
And the reason I am so dissappointed at this particular one is I put the pin aside, got another request and told them it was committed and then the trade fell through due to no communication and when I contacted the other person to let them know, they had already traded for it and I really would have liked the pin they offered too. And apparently I have nothing else for the pin they offered me originally.
UGHHHHHHHH!
