Q1) Laila advertised in a local newspaper. The advert states,

"For sale, rare pottery collection, OMR 300.

Contact 07557123456"

On Monday, Jolly saw the advertisement and telephoned Laila expressing his interest in the collection.

Laila said that as Jolly was obviously a very keen collector, she would let him have the items for OMR

200, Jolly then offered OMR 150. Laila said she would think about it and get back to him the following

day.

On Tuesday Dolly saw the advertisement and contacted Laila. Dolly asked Laila what the minimum

price she would accept for the collection. Laila replied stating that the minimum she would accept is

OMR 275. Dolly said that she accepted the offer over the phone and would be in touch later that week

to finalise the details.

On Wednesday, Laila met up with her friend, Jassem, who expressed interest in the pottery collection.

He offered OMR 400 for the collection and Laila agreed to sell immediately.

That lunchtime a mutual friend, Diana, told Jolly and Dolly about the pottery Jassem had just bought

from Laila. Jolly and Dolly are both very cross as the pottery is worth at least OMR 500, and are

demanding that Laila sell them the Pottery collection.
