Question 1:
Ash has five packs of cards and places an advert in his local shop window, Five packs
of Pokmon cards for sale: each 10. Available only to the first five people who pay
me this amount by Saturday 5th December.
Bill sends Ash 10 in the post on Tuesday 1st December and says he will collect one
pack on Monday 7th December. The letter gets lost in the post.
In the morning of Thursday 3rd December Callum telephones Ash and asks if he can
buy two packs for 15. Ash says he needs time to think about this and Callum tells
him to let him know by Saturday at 10am. On Thursday evening Ash calls Callum and
leaves a message on his answering machine saying, I agree you can have two packs
for 15. Callum does not hear the message until Saturday morning.
Being disappointed by the response to the advert, Ash decides to place the remaining
three packs in an auction on Friday 4th December. Ash places a note in his window
stating that the packs are no longer for sale and that they are going to auction.
Callum attends the auction and is delighted to see the Pokmon cards for sale. He
makes a successful bid and buys the three packs for 15. He sees Evie, Ashs partner,
at the auction and says What a bargain Ive got! Im glad that Ash didnt respond to
my telephone call. Evie calls Ash immediately. He is furious as he was keeping two
packs for Callum. In anger he takes the two packs which he had set aside to a charity
shop on Friday evening.
Having seen the advert earlier in the week, Dev arrives at Ashs house on Saturday
morning with 10 and is very annoyed to see the note as he planned to give a pack of
the cards to his brother as a birthday present. Bill arrives on Monday to collect his
pack.
Advise Ash.
