When you buy tickets from Expedia, Orbitz, etc that's your travel agent, all fine till its not. Its always advisable to buy directly from the airlines website. When you purchase from a ticket consolidator you are buying at the lowest fare bucket, you'll be the first to be denied boarded.
As far as being offloaded from the flight its because of a federal government rule that allows airlines to deny board for safety reasons aircraft under 60 seats. Yes, your 180 lbs makes a difference.
