Smooth Sales Used Cars could, however, do a mixture of allowing Jeff to cancel the contract and therefore not face legal issues while at the same time recouping some of the potential losses. They could agree to take the car back and agree to cancel the contract. Then, they could attempt to re-sell the used car.
