- Pacific Southern Airlines (PSA) had an unhappy customer. Cynthia Mercier-Walters flew from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Phoenix, Arizona. The flight stopped briefly at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, where she got off the plane for half an hour. When she returned to her seat, her $400 prescription reading glasses were gone. She asked the flight attendant where the glasses were, and the attendant said they probably were thrown away since the cleaning crew had come in with big bags and tossed everything in them. Ms. Mercier-Walters tried to locate the glasses through the airline’s lost-and-found service, but she failed. Then she wrote a strong letter to the airline demanding reimbursement for the loss. She felt that it was obvious that she was returning to her seat. The airline, however, knows that an overwhelming number of passengers arriving at hubs switch planes for their connecting flights. The airline does not know who is returning.

Dottie is silent as Dr. Rice leaves the examination room and Bruce proceeds to set the walker correctly. However, when Dottie sees that Bruce must once again put Dottie in a gait belt for her protection—the belt was used earlier in the examination to assess Dottie’s ability to ambulate—the patient gets feisty. She is visibly tired and ready to go home. “I’ll learn to use the walker if I have to, but I won’t wear that belt. It makes me feel like a baby. And it’s such a bother.

- Louis Estrada is Regional Manager at Commander Electronics in Atlanta, Georgia. He received an e-mail from Joseph Grimes, a frustrated restaurant owner who is demanding a steep price match for all his trouble with two new 4K Ultra HD televisions that both malfunctioned (see Activity 6.12). He had bought a Samsung QLED Q90R 65" 4K UHD TV (QN65Q90RAFXZA) at Commander Electronics for $2,597.99 plus tax. After installing it, he found, much to his chagrin, that the TV set failed the very next day. Wanting a new TV as soon as possible, he drove 30 minutes to the same Commander Electronics store to exchange the faulty model for another Samsung QLED Q90R 65" 4K UHD TV. A few days later, this TV also conked out. Again Joseph had to return the TV set, but this time he insisted on exchanging it for a different brand, a comparable LG 65" 4K UHD HDR Smart OLED TV (OLED65C8PUA) or a larger Sony 75" 4K Ultra HD Smart LED TV (XBR75X940E) that also fit Joseph’s criteria.

Happy Farms paid $5,000 up front and promised to pay the balance upon delivery. JA changed the order to a newer product “Very Berry Good†without notice to or consents from Happy Farms. Upon delivery, the head farmer at Happy Farms, Allison Kagan, noted that the product was not the same as she ordered. Later that afternoon, Kagan notified JA that the pesticide was not what she had ordered and refused to pay the balance on the shipment.

During the course of an operation, the doctor surgically implanted a ProteGen Sling (sling) in Brandt. Subsequently, the manufacturer of the sling, Boston Scientific Corporation, issued a recall of the sling because it was causing medical complications in some patients. Brandt suffered serious complications and had the sling surgically removed. Brandt sued Boston Scientific Corporation and Health Center for breach of the implied warranty of merchantability included in Article 2 (Sales) of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC). Health Center filed a motion with the court to have the case against it dismissed. Health Center argued that it was a provider of services and not a merchant that sold goods, and because the UCC (Sales) applies to the sale of goods, Health Center was not subject to the UCC. Health Center proved that Brandt’s bill was $11,174.50 total charge…arrow_forward
- A tanker, the Probo Koala, operated by an oil trading company based in the Netherlands, attempted to off-load 250 tons of petrochemical products in the Amsterdam port. The oil trading company indicated that the waste consisted of “regular slops,” wash water from a ship’s holds, which is normally laced with oil, gas, caustic soda, and other chemicals. When port workers started pumping out the tanker, they realized the liquid in the ship’s hold was not the kind the port usually accepts—it was thicker than normal and smelled especially foul. The workers believed the waste was hazardous and did not want to pump it out or handle it in any way. After researching the ship and investigating what might be in the ship's hold, the Amsterdam port operator decided that it was not safe to dispose of the waste at the port for the agreed price. The new price, which included safe disposal, was going to be around $300,000 more than originally agreed. The oil trading company declined and decided to move…arrow_forwardZucker purchased a mobile phone that included LookUP’s software, a database product containing information from 3,000 telephone directories. Every mobile phone sold with the LookUP software was wrapped in plastic shrinkwrap and prominently featured text notifying buyers that an enclosed license restricted use of the LookUP software product. After removing the cellophane cover and opening the mobile phone box, buyers could access the printed LookUP license. Moreover, consumers could not use the LookUP software product without first accepting the license posted on the screen. This license prohibited buyers from using the database commercially. Zucker, a college student, bought a mobile phone with LookUP software and then resold the database’s information on the internet to make some extra money for tuition. LookUP sued Zucker, who argued that the license did not apply to him because he never agreed to it.

- The Case: Ben purchased a used Laptop from Smart store during the sales period. He asked the salesperson, Rodny, if the Laptop had ever been damaged. Rodny (the salesperson) had never seen the Laptop before that morning and knew nothing of its history but quickly answered Ben’s question by stating: ‘No. It has never been damaged’. In fact, the Laptop had been seriously damaged previously and, although repaired and bought during the sales, it was worth much less than the value Ben had paid. When Ben learned the truth, he wanted to return the Laptop. Smart store replied that he cannot do that because they have a legally binding agreement and as per the agreement the items purchased during the sales cannot be returned. Questions: A) Does the behavior of the salesperson, Rodny, constitute deception?
