Example wrong choices

  • 14397_fish_keychains · CONTRACTS · Choice AYes, because Lydia relied on an implied promise to pay when she brought the keychains to Daniel.

    Why it's attractive

    The choice talks about seller reliance, but the call asks enforceability against a buyer who refused the goods.

    Why it's wrong

    The choice talks about seller reliance, but the call asks enforceability against a buyer who refused the goods.

  • 14397_fish_keychains · CONTRACTS · Choice BNo, because the parties never agreed on the price of the keychains.

    Why it's attractive

    Gold Key: missing price alone does not defeat a sale-of-goods contract.

    Why it's wrong

    Gold Key: missing price alone does not defeat a sale-of-goods contract.

  • 14397_fish_keychains · CONTRACTS · Choice CYes, because leaving the price open does not prevent a valid sale-of-goods contract when the parties otherwise intended to contract.

    Why it's attractive

    Silver Key: the choice answers formation, not the enforceability writing gate.

    Why it's wrong

    Silver Key: the choice answers formation, not the enforceability writing gate.
