Retailer sent Manufacturer the following e-mail: Please immediately send 500 widgets at the listed price of $5/widget. Widgets are urgently needed due to our big sale next week. /s/ Retailer Upon receipt of the e-mail, Manufacturer immediately sent Retailer the following response: We are out of stock of widgets. However, as an accommodation, we are sending you 500 of our semi-widgets at the listed price of $4/semi-widget. Most of our retailers have accepted the semi-widgets as a replacement for the widgets and we believe these will satisfy your customers. /s/ Manufacturer Manufacturer sent the semi-widgets the next day. Retailer never responded to the Manufacturer's e-mail, and the semi-widgets arrived in time for the sale. Retailer returned the semi-widgets rather than put them on sale. What is the best description of Retailer's rights arising out of this transaction?
(A) By failing to respond to Manufacturer's e-mail, Retailer is obligated to accept the semi-widgets and must pay Manufacturer $4 for each one.
(B) Retailer was not obligated to accept the semi-widgets; however, because it chose not to accept the semi-widgets, it has no right to sue Manufacturer for breach of contract.
(C) Retailer is not obligated to accept the semi-widgets, and it is entitled to sue Manufacturer for breach of contract because Manufacturer sent non-conforming goods.
(D) Retailer is not obligated to accept the semi-widgets; however, if it chooses not to accept them, it must allow Manufacturer a chance to cure by timely sending conforming widgets before Retailer is entitled to sue Manufacturer for breach of contract.
