Buying, selling and making contracts

Facebook Twitter LinkedIn

A contractual relationship arises between a consumer and a company whenever the consumer buys a product or service from the company (vendor). For example, paying for a product at a checkout or approving a renovation company’s offer both constitute the formation of a contract.

These web pages provide information on issues related to making and abiding by sales contracts.
