Error in this article?
editThe section headed "Unsolicited goods" ends with the following sentence:
"Title passes if the sender fails to recover them within three months."
However, this does not correspond to anything in the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000, nor in the 2005 Amendment. If it's an error, it should be deleted. If it is correct, a reference is needed to the source. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fwor (talk • contribs) 17:21, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
No comments to defend the sentence. It was deleted.
Regulation 17
editIt seems to me that regulation 17 makes the consumer responsible for taking reasonable care of goods for 6 months in many circumstances see paragraph 8
(8) Where—
(a)a term of the contract provides that if the consumer cancels the contract, he must return the goods to the supplier, and. (b)the consumer is not otherwise entitled to reject the goods under the terms of the contract or by virtue of any enactment — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.174.85.190 (talk) 19:16, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
Defntion of "a natural person"
editWould it be useful perhaps to have a link on "a natural person"? But I am not sure where to. I presume the definition is there to mean a kinda real person that has skin and bones instead of a company/corporation that is of course a person at law. Would it be useful to link this?
Actually I just found Wikipedia has a stub for Natural person so I think I will take WP:Bold and link it to there. But please if y ou disagree, revert or undo it. My qualm is whether I should put a link in a quote really.
Contradictory unsourced statement
edit- "If goods are sent to a consumer without a contract asking for them, the "recipient may [...] use, deal with, or dispose of the goods as if they were an unconditional gift to him" and "[t]he rights of the sender to the goods are extinguished"." (sourced)
- "Goods sent or delivered by mistake are not unsolicited goods, and remain the property of the sender" (unsourced)
These two statements are contradictory it'd seem. I'm going to be bold and make an edit removing the latter. 90.198.253.144 (talk) 08:42, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
