Under the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), when goods are delivered, the seller must accept any form of payment that is ordinary in the course of business unless they specifically demand cash and give the buyer reasonable time to procure it. This means North Pole Tree Farm must accept a check from Nicholas if that is a common method of payment, unless they have previously stipulated a cash-only requirement and provided Nicholas with enough time to comply with such a requirement.
