I would hate to think this went unread by someone, seeing as it's so durn hilarious.
:)
I'm quietly smiling to myself, somewhat tired after band practice but otherwise my normal calm, self.
The only thing funnier than a wind-up is the sound of a backfire.
And now I'm off to bed.
Work in 8hrs, ah well.
Rock and/or Roll.
It was amusing, and it's screamingly funny now.
Subsection 15:
2.—(1) In section 35 of the [1979 c. 54.] Sale of Goods Act 1979 (acceptance) for the words from "when he intimates" to "(2)" there is substituted— "subject to subsection (2) below—
(a) when he intimates to the seller that he has accepted them, or
(b) when the goods have been delivered to him and he does any act in relation to them which is inconsistent with the ownership of the seller.
(2) Where goods are delivered to the buyer, and he has not previously examined them, he is not deemed to have accepted them under subsection (1) above until he has had a reasonable opportunity of examining them for the purpose—
(a) of ascertaining whether they are in conformity with the contract, and
(b) in the case of a contract for sale by sample, of comparing the bulk with the sample.

It's point 2 (1) & (a) that is relevant here, where "he intimates to the seller that he accepts them".
For most tort cases, you have
1 - The offer, stating terms of contract
2 - The acceptance, along with confirmation of details
3 - Confirmation of original statement of offer and acceptance
4 - Acceptance of said offer.
It's at this point that the offer becomes a legally binding agreement, and further revocation without consent is invalid.
