ABSTRACT

Under s 18, r 5(2), delivery to a carrier, etc, for transmission to the buyer passes property only if the seller does not reserve the right of disposal. ‘Reserve the right of disposal’ means that the seller imposes conditions upon the buyer, and until these conditions are met, the goods do not become the property of the buyer. Section 19 deals with the question of the passing of property where a right of disposal is reserved by the seller. It provides that property in the goods does not pass until the conditions imposed by the seller have been met.
