Flavia Bought 4 Kilos of Onion Seeds from Greene's Nurseries

Question 4

Multiple Choice

Flavia bought 4 kilos of onion seeds from Greene's Nurseries while she was waiting for Organic to load her truck with manure. The packages were labelled "Greene's Rose Red Onions." Unfortunately, the seeds were really "Greene's Marigold Yellow Onions," but Flavia could not tell that until they had grown, since the two kinds of seeds are identical to the naked eye. Rose Reds bring a much higher return because they are very popular with those who buy organically grown vegetables and who are willing to pay high prices for them.


A) The rule of caveat emptor applies here and there is nothing that Flavia can do.
B) Since the seeds did not correspond with their description, Flavia is entitled to and will claim damages, since there is no point in her treating the contract as being at an end.
C) Flavia is entitled to damages, but these cannot include her lost profits.
D) Since Flavia bought the seeds under their trade name, she is not entitled to the remedies under the Sale of Goods Act.
E) Since the seeds did not correspond with their description, Flavia is entitled to and will claim damages, since there is no point in her treating the contract as being at an end and Flavia is entitled to damages, but these cannot include her lost profits.
