You might have countered your way out of the job, but you'll never know unless you ask. Send a followup email and see what they have to say. Either way, this says a lot more about them than it does you. Negotiating pay is the standard. If their response to a reasonable counter offer is radio silence, good riddance. Don't let it keep you from negotiating your next offer.
I don’t think it was blowing it if you brought a reasonable and realistic number. It’s not our fault that we’d like to be paid fairly, and companies seem to be trying to find the lowest number possible.
Unfortunately yes, it's likely they aren't coming back with a counter offer. In this job market, a lot of companies are treating salary offers as a take it or leave it situation. There will always be an experienced candidate willing to work for less.
