Ruby offered to sell her car to John for $5000. She sent the offer by email. John sent a return email to tell Ruby he was "ok with the price" but wanted the car "cleaned and detailed if he was going to buy it." Ruby just wanted to get rid of the car so, instead, she sold it to her college roommate that afternoon. When John found out, he was upset.
