ASSIGNMENT 01 QUESTION: Carol, an owner of an exclusive bicycle shop advertised a special
limited-edition bicycle for sale, and invited the public to make offers for the bicycle. Jane and
Portia were among many people who submitted written offers for the bicycle. Jane’s offer was
for R150 000, and Portia’s offer was for R190 000. Although Carol intended to accept Portia’s
offer, she erroneously wrote a letter to Jane, wherein she accepted Jane’s offer. Jane believes
that an enforceable contract was formed but Carol denies this. Apply the direct reliance theory
and advise if a legally binding contract was concluded between Carol and Jane. Discuss fully and
refer to case law in your answer. Do not apply the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008. [20
