II. Pleasant Painting has been trying to increase its business by identifying homes in the community that need painting and having its estimator, Micah Deel, provide homeowners with offers to paint their houses. Micah spends a half hour at Tim Flint's house and determines that Pleasant Painting could paint Tim's house for $3900. When Micah presents the offer to Tim, Tim tries to negotiate for a lower price by saying he would pay $3500. Micah tells Tim that he needs to speak with his boss before authorizing such a price. After Michael leaves, Tim contacts two other painters for estimates and discovers that neither will paint his house for less than $5000. Anxious to get his house painted, Tim sends Micah a text message agreeing to pay Pleasant Painting $3900 to paint his house.

3. Does the common law of contracts or the Uniform Commercial Code control the nature of any agreement that might have been created between Pleasant Painting and Tim Flint? Explain your answer.
