A load sheet, signed by the person at PP Produce Inc. who took delivery, referred to the consignment as having been received. The company has no history of stocking volume of pomelos because it is not saleable. Then they requested the WS Produce to take back 200 boxes of which WS Produce did.

WS Produce claimed the balance of the price. PP Produce Inc. contested that the pomelos had been supplied on consignment and still belong to WS Produce. Is a contract was one of sale or consignment?

She approached her sister Gemma and her friend Molly, as she knew that they were both interested in purchasing paintings for their business premises. Gemma ordered 2 paintings for her café at a total cost of £800. Molly ordered 5 paintings for her new office, which she wanted to look impressive when welcoming new clients, at a total cost of £1,000. Several months passed while Carol worked on the paintings. The final painting for Molly took slightly longer than expected, it was eventually delivered one month later than the initial date agreed.
