They all check the same master DNS lookup tables (WHOIS/ICANN). If nobody has a claim on that domain, they can market it.

Individuals that typically resell domains purchase the potentially popular domain name -- it is registered to them and they 'own' it. Thus, they can then resell the domain name for whatever sum they choose.
