Baker Furniture sold 50 living room sets to King's Department Store. The parties did not agree on passage of title, but the delivery term was F.O.B. place of shipment. Discuss title and risk of loss regarding the furniture.
What will be an ideal response?
Since the goods are to be moved, title passes to the buyer when the seller completes its transportation obligation. Here, title will pass when the seller puts the goods in the possession of the carrier at the place of shipment. With F.O.B. place of shipment, the seller bears the risk until the goods are in the possession of the carrier.
