What goods contracts are covered?
I15Sales contracts
1
A contract is a sales contract if under it—
a
the trader transfers or agrees to transfer ownership of goods to the consumer, and
b
the consumer pays or agrees to pay the price.
2
A contract is a sales contract (whether or not it would be one under subsection (1)) if under the contract—
a
goods are to be manufactured or produced and the trader agrees to supply them to the consumer,
b
on being supplied, the goods will be owned by the consumer, and
c
the consumer pays or agrees to pay the price.
3
A sales contract may be conditional (see section 3(5)), but in this Part “conditional sales contract” means a sales contract under which—
a
the price for the goods or part of it is payable by instalments, and
b
the trader retains ownership of the goods until the conditions specified in the contract (for the payment of instalments or otherwise) are met;
and it makes no difference whether or not the consumer possesses the goods.
