I'd say you are pretty safe then. If I were the SEDO buyer ill admit, I'd be pretty pissed, but if SEDO simply cancel the sale at least no-one loses anything (apart from maybe an opportunity).

Don't give them the domain.
I think that the legal minds should want to comment on this one.
If you think about what happened, it looks like Sedo took a name which was committed to one venue and switched it to another venue without permission or authority to do so and without meeting their first committment to you.
They seemingly erred and would not back off because of something in their own internal policies, when they failed to meet the terms of their original agreement with you?
That strikes me as an invalid transaction if ever I saw one and very strange behavior indeed.
bdjuf, it seems entirely unfair for Sedo to act in this way and I can certainly understand your anger at the situation.
If the legal minds do comment, I would ask, are such acts by Sedo actionable and if so, what might be the damages?
Who knows, given the costs associated with completing an action, Sedo might just want to settle and end up buying your domain for quite a bit more than you paid for it.

Perhaps Sedo could treat the transaction as it might a stolen name.
While the name certainly was not stolen, one would think that there must be some provisions in their agreements for a bad process transaction to get reversed, if for no other reasons, simply to protect Sedo's own interests.

Bad Flip! 
Sorry you didn't get a profit, Rob. I'm a little confused. I saw the domain at greatdomains.com and it ended at the same time as their latest premium auction. So I don't see the problem... ?
