Just Bought A $70,000 Domain

Earlier this afternoon I was browsing GoDaddy and the domain name I wanted was a .com that GoDaddy quoted as a premium domain with a price tag of just under $70,000.

A bit later I received an offer from GoDaddy saying I can get a .com domain for as low as $5.99 with a coupon code.

So, I thought why not give the coupon code a try on the $70k domain?

Got to checkout and the coupon code applied fine and the price shot down but I was having issues in checkout with my payment not going through. So I chatted with support and they pushed the payment through for me.

Now payment is confirmed, the domain is sitting in my Transfer-In portal thingy, and the support agent said I should have it fully within 3-7 business days.

Since this is technically using GoDaddy's escrow/buy&sell thing for third parties, I'm almost certain the third party is going to see what's going on and deny it all.

Has anyone had an experience like this? What are the odds this actually works out?
