Dear Professor,
Could you tell me how to understand “If identical offers cross in the post there is no contract due to there being no acceptance” ? The “identical offers” means two offers within one contract or in two different contract? I’m so confused about this rule.
Thank you for reply.
It means the following:
If I send a letter to B, that I am willing to sell him my book for £3 and he also sends me a letter at the same time, that he is willing to pay £3 for my book, there is no contract. There are two separate offer, though.
It is not legally binding and not enforceable until one of us send another letter, or choose another way of communication, and accept the other’s offer.
