Rahul Met Jones at a Street Corner and Made a Verbal

question 37

True/False

Rahul met Jones at a street corner and made a verbal offer to buy his canoe for $200. Jones replied that he would "think about it." Rahul nodded affirmatively. The two then went about their separate business. Later in the day, Rahul met Brown, who also had a canoe for sale, and Rahul offered to purchase Brown's canoe for $175. Brown agreed to sell Rahul his canoe. At 4 p.m. the same afternoon, after Rahul and Brown had made their arrangement, Jones telephoned Rahul to say he would accept Rahul's offer to buy his canoe. Rahul is not bound in contract with Brown because the prior contract he made with Jones became enforceable when Jones accepted his offer.
