Janet Durham Orally Agreed to Purchase Certain Computer Hardware Priced

Question 49

Essay

Janet Durham orally agreed to purchase certain computer hardware priced at $10,000 from Ted Stallings. The sale of the hardware also included a one-time setup service visit priced at $100. The total contract price amounted to $10,100. The computer hardware was delivered and set up, and Durham paid $10,100. Afterwards, Durham discovered that she could obtain the same goods and services from another seller for a total contract price of $9,100. She now seeks rescission of the contract, based on the fact that more than $500 in goods were involved in the sales transaction, that the contract between her and Stallings was subject to the statute of frauds as a result, and that the oral agreement between them was therefore unenforceable. Durham wants to return the computer hardware to Stallings, and receive reimbursement of $10,000 (She is willing to waive her claim to reimbursement for the $100 setup service visit.) Evaluate Durham's legal position in this matter.
