Edwin sells a sofa to Jack for $800. Edwin and Jack both know that the sofa is in Edwin’s warehouse, located approximately ten miles from Jack’s home. The contract does not specify the place of delivery, and Jack insists that the place of delivery is either his house or Edwin’s store. Is Jack correct? Why or why not? |
Explanation
As per section 2 (308) of the Uniform Commercial Code, if the delivery place of the goods is not mentioned during the contract, but both the parties know the place of storage of the goods, the place for the delivery of goods will be that specific place at whichthe goods have been stored.
In this case it is Individual E's place. For this reason, Individual J is not right.
Verified Answer
Individual J is wrong. In this case, the delivery place of the goods was not mentioned under the contract but both the parties were aware of the place at which the goods were stored. As Individual E's warehouse was the place at which the goods stored, the delivery place will be Individual E's warehouse.
