When is a buyer in breach of a sales contract?

What will be an ideal response?


A buyer breaches a sales contract if he or she refuses to take delivery of conforming goods, repudiates the contract, or otherwise breaches the contract. A buyer who breaches a sales contract before the risk of loss would normally pass to him or her bears the risk of loss of any goods identified to the contract. The risk of loss rests on the buyer for only a commercially reasonable time. The buyer is liable only for any loss in excess of insurance recovered by the seller.
