Commentary on Sections Part 1: Consumer Contracts for Goods, Digital Content and Services What statutory rights are there under a goods contract? Section 14: Goods to match a model seen or examined
76.This section establishes that if the trader displays or provides a model of the goods in question, then the goods received should match that model, except that any differences brought to the consumer’s attention before the contract is made would not breach this protection.
77.An example is a consumer viewing a television on the shop floor but receiving a boxed television from the stockroom. Under this section the delivered model should match the viewed model (unless any differences are brought to the consumer’s attention before it is bought).
