The question is as follow: Ann owns a shop selling prints.

The question is as follow:

Ann owns a shop selling prints. She placed an advertisement in the Friday edition of her local paper stating:

‘Unique opportunity to own a Bell print for £500 cash. Offer valid for one day only – tomorrow Saturday.’

When Con saw the advert, he immediately posted a letter of acceptance.

On Saturday, Di asked Ann if she would take a cheque for £500, but she refused to accept the cheque and told her she could not have the print. Later that day Ann sold the print to Evi.

On Monday morning Con’s letter arrived.

QUESTION (b) Explain whether Con has any right of action against Ann; (2 marks)

 

The answer read that Con has clearly tried to accept the offer but his reliance on the postal rule would be to no avail as the use of the post was clearly an inappropriate mode of acceptance. He, therefore, has no right of action against Ann.

 

My question is how can we see that the use of the post was clearly an inappropriate mode of acceptance ?

Thank you!
