Hello everyone.
Around a week ago I "bought" a domain through Sedo. By that, I mean that I submitted the payment but now the seller is basically doing nothing.
The domain in question is a .co.uk and it had the "buy now" option so one could be forgiven for thinking that maybe the listing is old, stale and forgotten about but according to Sedo, the "seller" only joined in June 2013 so that can't be the case.
My question to all of you is the legal side of this. I already have a feeling in my gut that this issue isn't going to be resolved through Sedo and I know that it's not really their fault and that they will give me the money back as I've experienced something similar before, but what about the seller? Can I sue him and pursue this domain name?
According to the whois for the domain, the seller is in the UK like myself and Sedo have the same address for him on their records so should I consider taking this to the next level with him if I continue to hear nothing? Will there be any assistance from Sedo from a legal point of view?
Any help is much appreciated.
