I have recently tried to purchase two domain names on Ebay, where the purchaser put at the bottom of the description:
"I reserve the right not to sell these domains to the winning bidder"
I had the winning bid but the seller has refused to sell the names, presumably because the bid was way too low for their liking.
I presume I have no remedy but it seems very unfair to me - the seller is putting a reserve on the auction without formally having a reserve.
Since I sent the money within a couple of hours by Paypal, presumably all I can do is to ask for it back?
Are there any steps I can take now or should take for future reference if I come across this type of offer again?
Any advice would be gratefully received.
