So you agree that if you've paid for a seat you should then give it up? To me it matters not the reason, it's paid for and should be available. There is no excuse for overbooking except to make the company more money.

Don't forget UA would have been paid for the seat, if the person didn't turn up on time then they have a genuine reason to sell it on but to deliberately overbook in the beginning is wrong IMHO.
