GoDaddy buy-it-now sales are not final?

[Pan]

If they are final, how to understand this from their auction rules :

As a Seller, you are obligated to complete the transaction if Buyer commits to purchase the domain name through a fixed price, Buy Now format, or if Buyer meets or exceeds the minimum bid or reserve price. Should you fail to complete the transaction for any reason (including, but not limited to, failing to move the domain name to Buyer’s account if Buyer commits to purchase the domain name through a fixed price, Buy Now format, or if Buyer meets or exceeds the minimum bid or reserve price), Go Daddy reserves the right to (i) charge you a fee or (ii) terminate your membership with Go Daddy Auctions (as determined by Go Daddy in it sole and absolute discretion).

In other words, if the seller changed his mind, godaddy will care only about it's sale's fee? The domain will remain in seller's account?

What you're quoting refers to the seller's obligation to honor a sale; if they don't push the domain, their TDNAM account/membership rights get affected. From my understanding, GoDaddy cannot simply force the domain to be transferred.

This is a bit confusing. Here's what's on their auction site:

"Go Daddy Auctions® lets you sell domain names with Offer/Counter Offer or Buy Now listings.

With Offer/Counter Offer listings, you can let buyers submit their own offers for your domain names. When a buyer submits an offer, you can either accept it, submit a counter offer, or push the listing to a 7-Day Public Auction using the buyer's initial offer as an opening bid. For more information, see What is Push to Auction?

When you accept an offer or the buyer accepts your counter offer, the sale ends. If you include a Buy Now option, the sale ends when a buyer accepts the Buy Now price, or when you or a buyer accepts an offer. There is no obligation to accept an offer."

The last paragraph is pretty clear, though.
