Gamesco orders $800 worth of game pieces from Midstate Plastic, Inc. Midstate makes a partial delivery of $450 worth of game pieces, and GameCo pays for $450 worth. Before Midstate ships the balance of the original $800 order, GameCo says it wants no more pieces from Midstate. Gamesco and Midstate have never dealt with each other before and have nothing in writing. Under the Uniform Commercial Code, Article 2, can Midstate enforce a deal for $350 more?
The Uniform Commercial Code includes Statutes of Frauds provisions that require written evidence or an electronic record of a contract for the sale of goods priced at $500 or more. Therefore, any contract for the sale of goods priced above $500 will have to be in writing and any such contract of sale will not be enforceable if it will not be in writing. In this case, G Company has ordered game pieces from M of worth $800 but had never signed any contract. M cannot enforce the deal.
