Act

• "The Act also regulated sale by description, where products are sold based on a description given of them. Section 2 provides that 'a sale of goods shall not be prevented from being a sale by description by reason only that, being exposed for sale or hire, they are selected by the buyer'. This is to ensure that a sale in a self-service store is not considered sale by description, and that the sale is therefore covered by other provisions." I'm probably being dense here, but it seems to me that according to that description the Act is saying exactly the reverse, that sales in a self-centre store are to be considered sales by description.

  No, it was me being dense! Fixed. Ironholds (talk) 08:48, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

• "For determining whether it is "fair or reasonable" to allow the exclusion clause, five tests were used ...". The tenses don't match.

• "Hire-purchase agreements are also regulated." Regulated by what? This Act?

• "Under the 1893 Act, conditional sale agreements were treated as hire-purchase agreements". What's a conditional sale agreement?

• "With the unification of provisions for hire-purchase and sale of goods agreements, conditional sale agreements are treated as sales." Are now treated as sales?
