Question

Retailer opened a baseball card store in vacant prem- ises next to an existing store. The card shop was very busy on opening day, so Retailer got a clerk from the adjacent store to help out. The clerk knew nothing about baseball cards. A boy who had a large baseball card collection asked to see an Ernie Banks rookie card, which was in a plastic case with an adhesive dot at- tached that read "1200." The boy asked the salesclerk, "Is it really worth $12?" The salesclerk responded, "I guess so," or "I'm sure it is." The boy bought the card for $12. In fact, the true price intended by Retailer was $1,200. Can Retailer get the card back from the boy?

Answer 1

Answer:

No

Explanation:

This was a mistake on the retailers part for not training the clerk. The clerk would be at fault and may have to pay or have a paycheck reduction due to his mistake.
