Harry saw Joe in his classic Buick at a local drive-in restaurant and told Joe that he'd like to buy the car. He offered him $15,000. Joe said he had to think about it and that he'd let Harry know. Two days later, Joe decided that he needed the money and couldn't afford to keep the car. He wrote Harry a letter accepting his offer and mailed it that afternoon. The next day, Harry phoned and told Joe he'd changed his mind and that he needed the money for something else. Joe told him about the letter, and in fact Harry received the letter that day after his phone conversation with Joe. Joe insisted on going through with the deal. Explain the legal liability of the parties.
