Your client Jessabelle, has two successful businesses. One as an exporter of timber and timber products internationally and the second as a ship owner who transports cargo internationally.

Jessabelle has sought your advice on the following issues;

Part A.

Jessabelle believes she has negotiated a contract for the sale of a large amount of timber to a company in New Zealand managed by Tim. She shows you an e-mail chain containing the following conversation;

Hi Jessabelle have you got 200 tonnes of red cedar, high quality for exclusive furniture making, to be shipped immediately?

Hi Tim, yes, we have high quality red cedar ready to be shipped

Hi Jessabelle, great I have a large order and require the timber by 1 April, can you deliver?

Hi Tim, yes, we have a ship leaving for New Zealand on 10 March, that would meet your time frame.

Hi Jessabelle, what is the price, I should have asked earlier?

Hi Tim, really reasonable price, $5,000 per ton.

Hi Jessabelle, that is a bit high, would you accept $4,000 per ton and payment over six months.

Hi Tim, would accept six months payment but not $4,000 per ton, with delayed payment need $5,000 per ton.

Hi Jessabelle, we could do $4,500 per ton.

Jessabelle's executive assistant typed out a letter and placed in in a post box at Martin Place on 10 March 2023 accepting the price of $4,500 per ton.

Tim having no response to his final email, sources a timber supplier in Canada who is prepared to sell the timber at $4,000 per ton.

Advise Jessabelle whether she has a contract for the sale of the timber with Tim, discuss only the International Convention for the Sale of Goods.
