    Business law
    On Friday 27 November Buyer sends a telex to seller offering to buy 1000 tones of sugar at the current market price. The telex is received in seller's offices after a short delay at 5 pm. Since the telex operator, has gone home for the weekend, seller posts a letter in the last post on Friday, accepting the offer. This reaches buyer at 2.30 pm on Monday 30 November. Meanwhile, at 9.30 am on 30 November, buyer sends a further telex to seller withdrawing his offer. This reaches seller and is read by him immediately at 9.45 am on 30 November. Seller now seeks your advice.
    Advise the seller.

    I assumed this was a contract law question, since it is, but your last two posts ( that I have deleted) were so childish, I did not know this was studied in Jr High.

    But what does it take for a contract to be valid, what is the rules on rules on offer and acceptance ?

    Uh, "telex" and "telex operators" are a thing of the past - the DISTANT past. Try the early 1970's (or before) past. All I have to say to your question is HA HA HA HA. We didn't fall for it. Now go answer you own homework question for a change.
