Question

Alex purchases a computer from dell to be delivered via fed ex. Dell delivers the computer to fed ex to be shipped to alex. During the delivery, the fed ex driver is having a bad day and just throws the boxes out the window of the delivery truck rather than setting the box by the front door as is standard practice. While throwing the computer it is damaged. Would dell be responsible for the damage to the computer?.

Answer 1

No, dell will not be responsible for the damage to the computer because the title transfers to the buyer once the good is delivered to a common carrier.

The parent company of Dell Technologies, which owns Dell, is an American technology firm that creates, markets, fixes and supports computers and related goods and services. A person or business that delivers people or things for a fee and declares that their service is accessible to the general public is known as a common carrier. Common carriers include, for instance, shipowners, railroads, airlines, taxi services, etc.

Since common carriers offer vital public services, they may be subject to stricter state and federal laws as well as increased government oversight. In general, a common carrier is one that, absent compelling reasons to the contrary, must offer its services to anybody willing to pay its rates.
