I think this is fair.

This is an old topic that comes up from time to time.

Although I get your point, there is no way to monitor if/when people send a PM, and it can't be demanded in any case, so it really comes down to a decision made by the seller. And while I can understand your notion of fairness, the items are his/hers to sell or dispose of as they see fit, and there really is no means to make it fair, or in most cases even judge if the selection is fair or not (since other replies may not be visible).

That said, it really is incumbent upon sellers to eventually acknowledge (to the sender) receiving all such PMs (or email) and to notify those that didn't win/have a chance to make a purchase/out-bid/etc. that they did not 'win' and, ideally, why not. But this too is just my notion of fairness and there is no way to enforce it, other than not responding to sellers that don't behave accordingly (though often it's a new member, only here to sell something).
