Visited the link you provided, below is a comment from Andrew
(I did not confirm if it's really him, but I believe its him).
The red bold text below explains why he is brokering the name again
Maybe you can send him a note & he will clarify the situation for you - see blue bold text, otherwise anyone here will be just speculating even people who joined NP longtime ago. Andrew is the only person who can tell you why he has decided to represent his client once more

@Joey – there is nothing fishy going on in any way whatsoever. We did broker the sale to Sven Echternach back in 2010 or so. We had no idea the domain could have been stolen at the time. At the time we sold the name on behalf of the apparent owner, he had been in possession of the domain for over 2 years! Usually the signature of a domain theft is a recent whois change or slight email modification followed by an immediate attempt to sell the name. Also, thieves are usually looking to move the name quickly. This owner was a brutal negotiator and turned down multiple 6 figure offers before accepting the offer we ultimately sold Prince.com for. So that means that if the domain was stolen from Andrew Prince, he didn’t even notice that the domain was stolen for more than 2 years! I’m not the only one who tried to broker this name, I’m just the one who actually sold it. Some still believe that Andrew Prince just had seller’s remorse after selling it and made up the whole domain theft story (not sure I buy that, but…).
SnapNames auctioned off Prince.com in a public live auction only a month before I sold it. They were representing the same “owner” whom I sold the domain for. But it didn’t hit reserve. Network Solutions even got involved in trying to sell it and failed. But the point is, NONE of them, including myself, had any suspicion whatsoever that the name could have been stolen. There were absolutely no signs to point to a theft. After the sale, there was a UDRP and subsequent legal case around Prince.com and the current owner, Sven, has prevailed in each. I’m not sure what more you want? Even the UDRP was filed around a year after the sale or so I believe. Maybe more, don’t remember at this point.
Anyhow, we are not actively brokering Prince.com but it is a “pocket listing” if you will.
Sven is still one of our clients and when a potential buyer might be a fit for Prince.com we will present the name to them. Nothing I’m trying to hide by any stretch of the imagination.
Before you go publicly accusing someone of something, you should fact check. I’m not exactly a hard person to get a hold of.
Just send me a note and ask whats up and I’d be more than happy to explain."
