Fahim rang HMC on Wednesday about hiring a ‘dates-sorter’. HMC offered him a DS1 sorter model for two weeks from the following Monday. Fahim wanted to consider it. HMC told him that if they did not hear from him within two days, they would assume that he wanted to hire it. Fahim never got back to them.
