Legally Enforceable Contract between Two Students to Purchase a Laptop
Question
James wants to buy a good laptop to do his college assignments and for gaming purpose as he has recently become interested in playing computer games. D’Cruz who owned a high end computer posted an offer by letter to James on Monday 15 June as follows:
“A good gaming computer, only used two times still looking new for sale $ 2,500.
If you are interested in buying you must write to me.”
The letter D’Cruz posted was delayed because of the postal strike and only reached James on 22 June. When James saw this offer he was very happy and in order not to miss the opportunity of buying the computer he immediately posted his letter of acceptance on 22 June. James letter only reached D’Cruz on 30 June.
Meanwhile, D’Cruz not receiving a reply from James believed that he is no longer interested in buying the computer, sold it to Fredrick on Friday 26 June. Fedrick made arrangements to collect the computer from D’Cruz on Saturday 27 June.
On 26 June D’Cruz and his friends were watching a movie in Cathay Cinema. Unfortunately, that night lightning struck D’Cruz’s room and the fire that ensued destroyed the room and burnt down everything including the computer. Fredrick turned up to collect his computer from D’Cruz on 27 June only to realise that the computer has been destroyed by fire. Fredrick is very disappointed and wants to sue D’Cruz.
a) Advise James whether there is an enforceable contract? Discuss the relevant issues and case laws in the formation of a contract.
b) Advise Fredrick whether he has any claim against D’Cruz in contract law even though it was not his fault that the computer was destroyed by fire?
c) Suppose Fredrick and D’Cruz are friends how will this affect the creation of an enforceable contract?
Summary: This question is related to a case study and discusses about a student wants to buy a good laptop to do his college assignments and for gaming purpose and asked to advice him with his requirements.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
I was very impressed by the time and effort that was given by the economics assignment expert for my Keynesian Multiplier Model Assignment essay. He was available at any time of the day to help provide answers for any queries I might have had with the topic. He also never complained about any changes or inclusions that I would suggest. My experience with HwA has been definitely a lot better than the other online assignment help provider services.

The tutoring that I received was also substantiated by the finance tutor with the help of finance text books and notes. The notes had proper referencing which helped me write my finance assignment so much better. Could not have asked for better online finance tutoring and am definitely going to recommend your services to my friends and juniors.

It is important to have a constant guide while you do your dissertation as the lack of constant help often leaves you all the more bewildered. The New Zealand dissertation expert who helped me with my assignment was available on a constant basis and she helped me get a fantastic grade.

Research and referencing are the two guidelines that our physics professor makes us swear by. Once I had had a one on one chat with my assigned tutor at TheReliableTutor and explained this prerequisite I have received all the physics assignments that I have requested with detailed research and flawless referencing. Its like having an extension of your own self working on the physics assignments.

I really needed some brush-up regarding my concepts of lung cancer patient care and when I came across HwA I was surprised to see that they have a specialized segment of nursing experts for oncology. I got help with my assignment and also got benefitted from the guidelines provided by the oncology assignment experts.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
