See also:SAMPLE (through the O. Fr. essemple, from See also:Lat. exemplum; a doublet of " example ") , a small portion of merchandise taken from the whole to serve as a specimen or See also:evidence of the whole; hence a See also:pattern or See also:model . See also:Sale by See also:sample obviates the See also:necessity on the See also:part of sellers of keeping large quantities of goods on premises unsuitable for storage, and on the part of buyers of having to make a See also:special visit to inspect the goods in bulk . The sale of goods by sample is dealt with in See also:England by the Sale of Goods See also:Act 1893, s . 15, which provides that a See also:contract of sale shall be a contract for sale by sample where there is a See also:term in the contract, See also:express or implied, to that effect . In the See also:case of such a contract, there must be (a) an implied See also:condition that the bulk shall correspond with the sample in quality; (b) an implied condition that the buyer shall have a reasonable opportunity of comparing the bulk with the sample; (c) an implied condition that the goods shall be See also:free from any defect, rendering them unmerchantable, which would not be apparent on reasonable examination of the sample . |
