Prior to entering into a contract with Fred, a keen gardener, NGC inform him that they now sell a new product called ‘Wondercut’ - the finest and longest lasting electric hedge trimmer in the world. Fred then purchases the hedge trimmer from NGC. At the same time Fred tells NGC that he is having a garden party in six days. They then persuade him to purchase a new lawn mower from them, to be delivered within three days. Within two weeks of using the hedge trimmer Fred discovers that the blades require sharpening. He also finds out that he could have bought a more up-to-date version of that product much cheaper from another retailer. The lawn mower is not delivered until seven days later, by which time Fred has had his lawn mowed by someone else, at a cost of £100. NGC now refuse to take back both the hedge trimmer and the lawn mower.
