Zeldin bought a used motorcycle from Bikers World. When Zeldin asked the salesperson about the mileage, the salesperson stated that the motorcycle had been driven only 3,000 miles, had never been raced, and needed no major engine repairs. In fact, the

cycle had actually been driven over 5,000 miles, had been entered in several racing contests, and needed major repairs. Zeldin purchased the cycle on the salesperson's representations and soon had to pay $200 for major repairs. In a legal action against Bikers World for fraud, would Zeldin be successful?


Yes. One who purchases an item relying on the representation of the seller can recover damages for fraud if the seller is lying.
