June finds an ad on Craigslist for a used car at a price she is willing to pay in cash. She emails the seller and offers to pay $200 extra more the asking price. She asks the seller to call her immediately to work out a deal. The seller calls June and they orally agree that June will pay $5200 for the car. June is to drop by sellers house in two days with cash in hand. They do not sign a formal agreement or otherwise follow-up by email or any other writing. The next day, another buyer offers seller $5500 for the car. Seller calls June to tell her that he will sell the car to the other buyer unless she can match the price. She tells him that they already have an agreement, and refuses. June receives an email from seller later that day. The email states:
Hey:
I spoke with my cousin, who is an attorney. He stated that I do not have to sell you my car because we didn’t sign anything, so it is not enforceable. Sorry our deal did not work out.
Cheers!
Required:
Can June still enforce the agreement, or is it unenforceable under the Statute of Frauds? Discuss.
