Shipment by seller
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
Where the seller is required or authorized to send the goods to the buyer and the contract does not require him or her to deliver them
at a particular destination, then unless otherwise agreed he or she must
(a) put the goods in the possession of such a carrier and make such a contract for their transportation as may be reasonable having
regard to the nature of the goods and other circumstances of the case; and
(b) obtain and promptly deliver or tender in due form any document necessary to enable the buyer to obtain possession of the goods
or otherwise required by the agreement or by usage of trade; and
(c) promptly notify the buyer of the shipment.
Failure to notify the buyer under paragraph (c) or to make a proper contract under paragraph (a) is a ground for rejection only if material
delay or loss ensues.
