Pаlаu is а persоnal shоpper. Peоple call Palau with a list of things they want. Palau finds them, buys them, and delivers them in exchange for full re-imbursement, milage fees, and a compensation based of a percentage of the value of the purchased items – usually 15%. Palau’s business was irregular. Some days he made $500, some days Palau made nothing. On average, his net profit was $250 per day. Palau had an old land Rover he was using for his work, but it had a significant breakdown. Palau took the Land Rover to Dietrick’s Land Rover, a car dealership with a repair garage. Dietrick examined the vehicle and said he thought his repairmen could fix it. Dietrick asked Palau to leave the Land Rover with him so he could examine it more fully and put together an estimate. Palau said that was OK, but he hoped Deitrick would hurry because he needed the Land Rover for his personal shopper business. Dietrick said, “I can get you the estimate by tomorrow. We will not know how long repairs will take until we can take the vehicle apart and see what new parts we need.” Palau said “please hurry. I am losing money every day.” Palau came back in the next day around noon. He had to wait an hour to see Dietrick. When he did Dietrick said “My best man called in sick today, and we are busy. Come back tomorrow.” Palau cam back at 1 PM on the third day to try to get an estimate. This time Dietrick provided an estimate sheet that said the car needed new rings, new gaskets, transmission service, and a new water pump. It is estimated to be $1,000 for parts and $2,000 for labor. It was also estimated that it would take four work-days to get the parts and make the repairs. Palau wrote on the estimate “If the vehicle is not finished in five days Deitrick will owe me $200 a day in lost income.” Palau reluctantly signed the estimate and again asked Dietrick to hurry. Deitrick counter signed the estimate and said “don’t worry, we will get it back to you within the five days.” Palau checked back every day. The car was not finished for two more weeks. Palau started renting a car after the first week. The rental cost $100 a day, but was less practical for the deliveries that Palau’s spacious old land Rover. When the car was finished Dietrick said it cost more than the estimate. The final bill was for $2,000 in parts and $4,000 in labor. Palau comes to your law firm and asks what he can recover from Deitrick. You do not need to discuss any defenses or concepts we have not covered so far.
