Yes, you are not be legally obligated to sell it, but you went through the motions.
Still, if you decided that you want to keep it, I don't think you sacrifice any integrity as long as you politely explain that you've had a change of heart, and apologize.
If the seller had traveled across the country or made some huge sacrifice based on your sale, that would be a different story.
In fact, all that's happened is that you've received *notification* of an offer. You haven't accepted it yet, have you?
It's not like you Kindled the potential buyer.
