Contract laws
Peter is a Managing Director of Spring Garden Ltd and he wants to buy 10 mobile phones for the company’s employees. He visits the office of Best Phones Ltd and chooses the latest models. At the reception desk, he is given a contract of sale which he does not read. He simply signs the document and gives it back to the receptionist. One of the terms printed on the contract states ‘Best Phones Ltd will not be liable for any defects in any phones sold’.
After a week, the phones cannot make or receive calls and the phone batteries only last for 30 minutes.
Advise Peter whether Best Phones Ltd can reply on the exemption clause to exclude its liabilities.
