If I knew someone was interested in one of my domains and went as far as to making a binding offer, I'd certainly not let it drop. That tells me there's interest in the name. This kid got lucky that the company ended up dropping his name -- I'm not sure what he was thinking at any point through this. Hopefully he learns that he made a few mistakes throughout this process so there's not more of this going on!

If you want a chance of getting the domain back without paying over the odds for it then making an offer is the last thing todo as it shows there is interest in the domain!
