An advert on a website can be tricky too, not always an offer.

Wait, are we sure about that? Seems a bit sketchy.

But a bid on an auction is definitely an offer.

Totally agree, it's just an invitation to treat!

A display in a shop window isn't an offer.

I’m confused about the price proposal; it sounds like it could be an offer, but I’m not certain if it meets all the criteria.
NO

I practiced a similar question where an auction was involved, and I think a bid in an auction is definitely an offer.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like an advert on a website could be an offer if it specifies terms clearly.
DO

I think I remember that a display in a shop window isn't usually considered an offer, just an invitation to treat.
BR
Brice 1 year ago
I've got a good feeling about this one. The price proposal valid for 14 days seems like the clearest offer to me, since it has a definite term. The auction and bid options are trickier.
YO

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know an offer has to be clear and definite, but I'm not sure which of these options would qualify.

This looks like a tricky question on contract law. I'll need to think carefully about the key elements of an offer.
AN
Andree 1 year ago
Okay, let me see. I think a display in a shop window and an advert on a website could both be considered offers, since they're invitations to treat. But I'm not sure about the other options.

I've got this one! The answer is C - data in email message. Email communication is the type of data that would require both the sender and receiver to have the ability to encrypt and decrypt the information being transmitted. That's the most logical choice here.

I'm a little confused. Wouldn't it make sense to meet with the customer first to fully understand the requirements before we start defining tasks? I want to make sure we're on the same page.

This is a classic law exam question. I bet the professors who write these just sit around trying to come up with the most confusing scenarios possible. 'What if a talking cat offers to sell you a bridge?'

Hmm, I thought an auction was more like a negotiation, not an offer. But maybe D is the right answer there. This question is trickier than it looks!

I agree, a bid on an auction is not an offer. It's more of a response to an existing offer.

E is definitely an offer, since it specifies a valid timeframe. But I'm not convinced about the other options.

A and B are just invitations to treat, not offers. C and D seem more like the right answer, though I'm not 100% sure.
