Two dashes?

I recently registered xn--n1af.com and xn--n1af.net (punycoded со.com and со.net) on domainsite.com. After 24 hrs the domain was still not available in the control panel, so I emailed the support team. And got this in reply:

Ref: xn--n1af.com

Hello,
Thank you for your email. Unfortunately having 2 "-" symbols next to one another is not a valid domain name registration format.
Both domain names are available with 1 "-". Please let us know if you would like to register those instead. Have a great day!

When looking this up in godaddy it says "invalid syntax".
How did someone on namepros registered ю.com, я.com, etc?..

that's strange. maybe со.com and со.net have already been registered as co.com and co.net
or your registrar might not allow puny coding
