Anyway my point is the responsibility of setting the price for an item does not fall on the buyer. You dont walk into a store asking if they have an item and have the shopkeep responds with "What is it worth to ya?"

Doesn't apply one bit. An open shout of someone saying "I want to buy a silver helm!" is a far cry from walking into a store that sells silver helms where prices are labeled on each of them for you to see. If you yell you are looking for a specific item, then you probably should have an idea what you are willing to pay for it.
If I /auc I am WTB an item, you can be sure when you send me a tell saying you got the item I will know the most I am willing to pay for said item, before I even initiate any interaction with someone by yelling "WTB ITEM I NEEDS IT NOW!!!!"
If you are initiating the auction by advertising you are WTB something, then yes, the onus is on you to know the max you are going to pay for it, afterall YOU are the one that wants the item, not the seller who contacts you because YOU advertised you wanted something they have.
Doesn't matter, I sold the thing for more than I offered to the guy, it's his loss and my gain.
