Ratio The plaintiff sold 13 mahogany logs to the defendant. The defendant was to use them for cabinet making and inspected a sample, declaring them not to be of the best but adequate for chairs. When the entire consignment was delivered, he refused to pay saying that they had holes ‘so big you could put your head in them’. Held; The plaintiff succeeded. The logs delivered were of the same quality as inspected, and so the buyer knew what he was getting.
