In a telephone conversation, a jewelry maker offered to buy 100 ounces of gold from a precious metals company if delivery could be made within 10 days. The jewelry maker did not specify a price, but the market price for 100 ounces of gold at the time of the conversation was approximately $65,000. Without otherwise responding, the company delivered the gold six days later. In the meantime, the project for which the jewelry maker planned to use the gold was canceled. The jewelry maker therefore refused to accept delivery of the gold or to pay the $65,000 demanded by the company. Is there an enforceable contract between the jewelry maker and the company

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Since in the question there is a situation given in which there is a telephonic conversation and later onwards the jewelry maker refused to accept the goods delivery or pay $65,000 as per the company

So this represents that there is no enforceable contract lies between the company and the jewelry maker as the agreement is not in writing so it would not be considered as a valid contract

hence, the answer is no
