Nielson, a road builder, asked Anderson how much rotomill (recycled asphalt) it had on hand as it
Question:
Nielson, a road builder, asked Anderson how much rotomill (recycled asphalt) it had on hand as it needed some for a paving job. Anderson said it had 12,000 to 15,000 tons it would sell for \($25\) a ton. Neilson emailed Anderson “we will need 12,000 tons of rotomill … will pay you \($25.00\) a ton.” More than a year later, Neilson looked at the rotomill and rejected it as “faded or bleached and it’s got lumps in it.” Anderson had no other buyer and sued for breach of contract. Neilson argued the alleged contract was “too vague to enforce.” Was there a contract or were the goods properly rejected?
