What is the ruling on a person who bought gold from his brother at a slightly low price, and the buyer gave him a specific period, stating that if he returned the price of the gold, he would return the gold to him?

The questioner : Some of the brothers were in a difficult situation regarding a matter like this. He sold his wife’s gold, which was worth approximately seven hundred dinars, including a bracelet and a necklace... He went to the goldsmith to sell them, and the goldsmith reduced the price by approximately two hundred dinars. So he went to one of the brothers and said, “I want to sell them to you. I paid four hundred and fifty dinars for them, so you are the one who should give me five hundred dinars. I am losing two hundred dinars on them because I am forced to take a loss.” So this brother took them and gave him five hundred dinars. He said to him, “But because you are in a difficult situation, these are my rights now, but you have a four-month opportunity. If you arrange the five hundred dinars, I will return them to you at the same price.” So what is your opinion on this matter?
