Question: Ames, Bell, Cain, and Dole each orally ordered LCD ( liquid crystal display ) televisions from Marvel Electronics Company, which accepted the orders. Ames's television

Ames, Bell, Cain, and Dole each orally ordered LCD (liquid crystal display) televisions from Marvel Electronics Company, which
accepted the orders. Ames's television was to be encased in a specially designed ebony cabinet. Bell, Cain, and Dole ordered
standard televisions described as Alpha Omega Theatre. The price of Ames's television was $1,800, and the televisions ordered
by Bell, Cain, and Dole were $700 each. Bell paid the company $75.00 to apply on his purchase; Ames, Cain, and Dole paid nothing.
The next day, Marvel sent Ames, Bell, Cain, and Dole written confirmations captioned Purchase Memorandum, numbered 12345,
12346,12347, and 12348, respectively, containing the essential terms of the oral agreements. Each memorandum was sent in
duplicate with the request that one copy be signed and returned to the company. None of the four purchasers returned a signed
copy. Ames promptly called the company and repudiated the oral contract, which it received before beginning manufacture of
the set for Ames or making commitments to carry out the contract. Cain sent the company a letter reading in part, Referring
to your Contract No.12347, please be advised I have canceled this contract. Yours truly, (Signed) Cain. The four televisions
were duly tendered by Marvel to Ames, Bell, Cain, and Dole, all of whom refused to accept delivery. Marvel brings four separate
actions against Ames, Bell, Cain, and Dole for breach of contract. Decide each claim.
