ASSIGNMENT 01

bicycle for sale, and invited the public to make offers for the bicycle. Jane and Portia were
among many people who submitted written offers for the bicycle. Jane’s offer was for R150 000,
and Portia’s offer was for R190 000. Although Carol intended to accept Portia’s offer, she
erroneously wrote a letter to Jane, wherein she accepted Jane’s offer. Jane believes that an
enforceable contract was concluded but Carol denies this. Apply the iustus error doctrine and

advise if a legally binding contract was concluded between Carol and Jane. Discuss fully and
refer to case law in your answer. Do not apply the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008.

R190,000 for the limited-edition bicycle. However, she mistakenly sent an acceptance letter to
