Complete EITHER Part I or Part II. I chose Part II.

Part II*

A seller (named Seller) has found an easy way to sell his huge stash of books. He picks names out of the telephone book (what in the world is that?) and sends people a letter stating that he will be sending them 3 books at $10 each UNLESS they write back within 10 days and state that they do not want the books. Most people do not bother to respond to the first letter. Next Seller sends his victims the books (with a copy of his original dated letter attached) and another letter with some language stating "You are now obligated to pay me." Well, the $30 checks keep pouring into his business. If he does not get the money after his second letter, he sends a 3^rdletter in a red envelope, and then he usually gets the money. Two weeks after receiving the 3 books from Seller, Business Law Student sends the unopened box of books back to Seller with big bold letters: "RETURN TO SENDER" written across the box.He also wrote a little note to Seller: There was never an acceptance by me. And as for the other 3 books that you sent to my roommate, there was no acceptance there either.We both read all 3 of those books.Those 3 books were so good that we were actually able to sell them on eBay for $30 each!Is Business Law student correct about:

• There was no acceptance of the 3 books he returned
• He was permitted to return the 3 books
• There was no acceptance of the other 3 books even though they read them
• He and his roommate sold the books sent to roommate on eBay

(No this is not a multiple-choice question.Answer with regard to all four aspects of Business Law student's actions and arguments)
