Sureeya sells jewellery at her store premises. Sureeya agreed to sell Janet's ring as her agent. Janet agreed to pay Sureeya a commission of $100 regardless of the sale price. Under their agreement, Sureeya did not have authority to sell the ring without Janet's approval. After Sureeya put the ring up for sale, Talia offered Sureeya $7500 for it.
