Question:
Read the summary of the case Daughtrey v. Ashe on page 369 of the Cheeseman textbook (Under "Critical Legal Thinking Cases") and in an original post explain to the class whether or not you think the jeweler in this case made an express warranty or simply offered an opinion with respect to the quality of the diamonds in the bracelet. In an original post explain your opinion on the following questions:
1. Do you think a jeweler's evaluation of a diamond is an opinion or are the standards objective enough that all jewelers would give the same diamond the same quality rating?
2. Since opinions do not create warranties, (a car dealer for example can say, "This is the best car on the lot." and no warranty is created because that is just his opinion) if Daughtrey sues the jeweler for breach of warranty, who do you think will win the case?
3. What should Daughtrey have done differently to better protect himself?
