Question 1

Ruby saw a vase in a shop and asked the seller whether it was Victorian. The seller replied that he thought it probably was Victorian. The seller further informed that the vase previously belonged to his grandfather which he had always said that the vase was Victorian but this fact was never verified and hence the seller was not sure. Ruby bought it and later discovered that it was only 10 years old. Advise Ruby whether there is a valid contract between Ruby and the seller. (10 marks)
