| If it was a condition of the agreement to purchase the name that you MUST have it registered with X I say the deal is dead.
However if the only deal reached was you buying the name I think opening a new account at the current registrar that holds the name and completing the deal by accepting a push or initiating the transfer is the right thing to do. Now if it's at a cost to you that was significant ( which we know it is not ) you could ask for the difference back seeing as he failed to mention the 60 day hold ( knowningly or not ) .
My advice is to open a new account, be a man and complete the deal. Numerous times I have done this and it has been done for me. It is a part of the business, live with it. If you cannot live with this quite frankly you are not prepared to do business at all.
