Abstract

Buyers and Sellers of goods make all kinds of statements to each other about the nature of the contract between them. They make promises and state conditions that relate to price, quantity, means of delivery, remedies, repairs and maintenance, and a whole host of other terms. Interestingly, Section 2-313 of Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code ("U.C.C.") takes one kind of statement, express warranties, and treats it in a very special manner. This article will examine the reason for this different treatment and ask whether such different treatment should be extended into the draft of Section 2B-402, Express Warranties, of the new U.C.C. Article 2B as it is to apply to licenses of Published Information Content.
