Edward is an avid rugby fan. He subscribes to Sports World, a magazine which contains a classified section where private persons and small businesses can advertize their sports memorabilia for sale. One day, he sees an advertisement from Lionel, who owns a sports shop, which reads: 'Special deals on Football, Rugby and Cricket sportswear. Special deal this month: England Shirts from last World Cup. Liquidation Sale. £15 each'. After England's success in the Rugby World Cup, Edward has been at pains to find an English rugby shirt. He e-mails Lionel, immediately ordering two. A week later, Edward receives his package and is surprised to see that the shirts he has bought are the English Football Shirts from the 2002 World Cup. Seeing as the 2006 World Cup is nearing, Lionel wanted to make room for new stock. Have the parties concluded a contract and, if so, on which terms?
A) Yes, for two Rugby World Cup shirts. By advertizing in a sports magazine after England won the Rugby World Cup, Lionel gave Edward the impression that the advert was for rugby memorabilia.
B) Yes, for two Football World Cup shirts. Edward should have realized that no one would sell English rugby shirts so cheaply after their World Cup victory. The Football World Cup, on the other hand, was in 2002.
C) No, the parties were contracting for a different subject matter, Edward for Rugby shirts and Lionel for Football shirts.
