On Saturday evening Harry responded to Phoebe's ad as follows: l will buy the laptop if I can pick it up and pay for it

On Saturday evening Harry responded to Phoebe's ad as follows: "l will buy the laptop if I can pick it up and pay for it on Monday afternoon". Phoebe replied by text: "l am hoping to sell it this weekend. I can hold it for you until noon on Sunday," to which Harry replied: "l can't pay until Monday." Which of the following represents the most accurate legal analysis of the situation:

a) Harry accepted Phoebe's offer and purchased the computer on terms

permitting him to pick it up and pay on Monday.

b) Harry made a counter-offer to Phoebe, which Phoebe did not accept.

c) Phoebe made a counter-offer to Harry, which he did not accept.

d) Both (b) and (c) are true.

I know for a fact Phoebe did make a counter offer however does harry saying "I can't pay until Monday" count as a counter offer since he simply just restated what he has stated in his original offer
