You selling your low value domain and asking for a refund is not the same as the owner of ua accidentally selling ua.com

UA is likely a LARGE customer of the domain service you use and pay multiple thousands of dollars more for managed services and support than you do. They will get special treatment because it's in THEIR contract, just not yours.

Try reaching out to them and ask what kind of contract you need to sign to get the ability to reverse accidental sales, they probably can quote you a price.

The law doesn’t care about the value of a contract, it’s enforceable or it’s not, and I don’t think you have the slightest clue how damaging it would be if I were to sue (again I never I would) and it to come out in discovery that the marketplace reversed the transaction I was the buyer and refused to reverse the transaction I was the seller because the seller the supported pays them more than I do and as a result reversed their transaction not mine. Or even a more generous interpretation of your comment that there is a non advertised fee you can pay to reverse transactions after the fact and the same is not disclosed to users and buyers of those particular domains.

I’m just telling a story of what happened, you seem to be arguing and it’s really bizarre. If you wanted to discuss the law in good faith fine, I’m happy to do that, but you are taking everything personal and lashing out with comments like my “low value domain” and just seem to want to justify what they did from error to paying for a special non advertised service that permits reversing sales...so I’ll step back.

This example doesn’t seem to have anything to do with the law. If you’re a big and important customer, you get more leeway to make mistakes and get them reversed. If you are small potatoes you don’t get to reverse mistakes. Go rack up a $1000 phone bill by mistake and see how difficult it is to fight. Then, go be a Fortune 500 company and see how easy it is to get a mistaken corp phone bill fixed. It’s not fair but it’s reality.

I realized, and I might be wrong, but this person almost certainly accidentally sold their domain at a low price and wants a refund. The example about them buying ua may or may not have happened but the point is they are mad that they didn’t get special treatment and I think that’s their general grievance. A grievance I can understand and agree with, but for which we should admit there’s not much we can do about it, and deflecting to a megacorporation won’t make it right.
