The Code defines the term merchant on a case-by-case basis.If a person regularly deals in the kind of goods being sold,or pretends to have some special knowledge about the goods,or employed an agent in the sale who fits either of these two descriptions,that person is a merchant for the purposes of the contract in question.So,if you buy a used car from a used-car dealer,the dealer is a merchant for the purposes of your contract.But,if you buy a refrigerator from a used-car dealer,the dealer is probably not a merchant.
