Question 61

Essay

VuPlay Company contracts to deliver one hundred 60-inch 3D HD television sets to a new retail customer, Watchbox Store, on May 1, with payment to be made on delivery. VuPlay tenders delivery in its own truck. Watchbox's manager notices that some of the cartons have scrape marks. Watchbox's owner phones VuPlay's office and asks whether the sets might have been damaged as they were being loaded. VuPlay assures Watchbox that the sets are in perfect condition. Watchbox tenders VuPlay a check, which VuPlay refuses, claiming that the first delivery to new customers is always for cash. Watchbox promises to pay the cash within two days. VuPlay leaves the sets with Watchbox, which stores them in its warehouse pending its "Grand Opening Sale" on May 15. Two days later, Watchbox's stocker opens some of the cartons and discovers that a number of the sets are damaged beyond ordinary repair. VuPlay claims Watchbox has accepted the sets and is in breach by not paying on delivery. Will VuPlay succeed on these claims? Explain.
