An offer to buy is certainly not restricted to price alone, an offer could include terms such as post costs / pick up / combined post / extended payment terms etc
That is what is shown to buyers on the full screen offer page, but interestingly not on the new pop-up window system - to offer a price that is inclusive of postage is contradictory to the way the system is supposed to work.
The conditions you add must not breach eBay policy.... I'm not making any specific claims as to what is or isn't policy because I haven't researched it in depth, but the seller has 48 hours to accept or decline - I doubt you can "invalidate" an offer because you put a different time limit on it - the offer itself is the same as a bid, and there are only certain conditions under which a bid / offer can be retracted. The seller not responding to enquiries within 24 hours is not one of those conditions.
