A. Johnny Rose has a dining room table and accompanying sideboard that he purchased from Rooms To Go only two years ago that he can no longer use. He offers both items for sale for $450.00 on the Next Door Neighbor site for the town of Schittsville in Polk County, Florida. After seeing the advertisement, at 9 AM the next day, Roland Schitt visits Johnny's motel room intent on making an offer for the table and sideboard. Just minutes before Roland's arrival, however, Bob Currie calls Johnny and offers $600 for both items. Johnny agrees to that and Bob says he'd be right over. As Roland enters Johnny's motel room, he immediately tells Johnny that he'll purchase the items for the advertised price of $450.00.

Johnny becomes angry and sues Bob for breach of contract. 1. What law applies to Johnny's lawsuit - the general law of contracts or Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Explain your answer. 2. Under these facts, have Johnny and Bob entered into a valid contract? Explain your answer. 3. Under these facts, would Johnny's breach of contract lawsuit succeed in court? Why or why not
