   Peter O was kind of unclear when discussing the mailbox rule - only clear that it's always heavily tested. LOL

   Acceptance of the contract: effective when the offeree sends (dispatches) the acceptance (regardless if lost, delayed, stolen by mail or recipient). The offeree accepted the job offer and mailed the acceptance on 10/5. The contract has been formed 10/5.

   ***acceptance must comply with the method stated; however, if no method has been stated, the delivery method is optional.

   Rejectance/offers/revocations: effective when received by either party.

   1 more thing - of the offer specifies that the acceptance must be received by a date in order for it to be valid is the exception to the mailbox rule.

   I'm struggling in this area and am using this site as help - especially in the law section. I have remained quiet with the taxation. But am asking for assistance or examples. If that is okay.

   Always ok to ask for help. I just saw a bunch of notes and statements. No questions. That's why I asked.

   @Yvonne: It seems complicated, but it's actually one of the easier law topics. In general, acceptances are effective went SENT, while offers, counteroffers, rejections, are effective when RECEIVED. It doesn't matter if the offer is lost as long as it was sent, so while the offeror may try and get out of it, the contract is valid and will be enforceable. The exception is if the offeror specifies (I must receive the acceptance by 3pm on 05/05/05, OR if they specify a method of acceptance) then it must meet those criteria. Otherwise, valid and enforceable. Work the problems and you'll see how they word things and it's a lot easier than it seems, I promise. Hope this helps!

    Okay, re-reviewing and to be honest. I feel mentally retarded. It's not sinking into me. Perhaps because I'm challenged or because there has been too much stress going on at home. But what is simple to you, is very complicated and way over my head. The contracts/sales/law. I just am not getting it. I seem to understand when I listen to Tim G's lectures (Becker). Or maybe I need business law for dummies to accommodate my mental challenges. LOL.
