Cordelia Intended to Purchase Ten Copies of a Book from an Online

Cordelia intended to purchase ten copies of a book from an online book dealer. She intended to keep one copy for herself, and give the others to her students as end- of- term gifts. By mistake, however, she actually placed an order for "100," rather than "10," books. She realized her error only when she received an enormous shipment of books. She now wants to avoid the consequences of her mistake. Which of the following statements is TRUE under most Canadian statutes that deal with electronic commerce?

A) Cordelia will be entitled to relief only if she proves that she had committed a reasonable mistake and that she had not been careless when she placed her order.
B) Cordelia cannot possibly avoid the consequences of her own mistake.
C) Cordelia must pay for all 100 copies of the book unless she can prove that the book dealer immediately realized that a mistake had been made.
D) Cordelia is entitled to relief only if, among other things, she notified the book dealer of her error as soon as possible after realizing she had made a mistake.
E) Cordelia is automatically entitled to relief if the book dealer's web site did not immediately ask her to confirm the number of books that she wanted to purchase.
