Not sure what your looking for but if my random bits n pieces help ... all good.

 

Bit scatty this evening,

 

Doesn't transfer of ownership occur when the conditions of a sale contract have all been met. So when paid and posted.

 

So for sellers I would think that would be when they have delivered the goods to a carrier for freight to the buyer.

I've just got a bee in my bonnet about AP at the moment LOL

I don't understand why if I pay for a standard service of delivery, that I then also have to pay added extras to ensure that they provide the service that I've already paid for.

Curious too about ownership of an article.

On eBay, Once I finalize the contract, by Common Law, the article now belongs to the buyer, even though it is still in the posession of the seller - that's just geography.

In an insurance claim, it is the owner who must raise the claim.

I've also gone off on the tangent about sellers who accidentally post goods before payment is received - ie, can they take the item back once they have posted it - as technically, they breach the law by witholding the article from the true owner. As even though they haven't been physically paid, the promise to pay is all that is required to form a contract, so the seller is obliged to supply the item, but then if no money is received, they correct course of action is for them to raise a case for payment. It is two seperate cases.

This also effects the return of goods for refund and the processes that PayPal and eBay have in place and instruct us to do.
