The buyer can reject the goods for breach of a condition to be performed by the seller for
example.
- If the seller delivers more goods than the quantity contracted for.
- If the seller delivers less goods than the quantity contracted for.
- If the seller delivers by instalments contrary to the terms of the contract.
- If the seller delivers goods mixed with those of a different description.
In such circumstances, the buyer incurs no liability and any price paid is irrecoverable. The buyer may lose the right to reject the goods:
- If he has accepted the goods and given something in earnest to bind the contract.
- If the duration if any prescribed by the contract has lapsed.
- If no duration is prescribed by the contract but reasonable time has lapsed.
