Rotten potatoes Mar 20, 2012

Just imagine I bought a bag of potatoes and the farmer came to me to say that I cannot eat my potatoes because the supermarket company hasn't paid him. A bit ridiculous, right? The same in our case, in my opinion.


I agree with you about expecting compensation by the end client: he isn't your client. There is no contract.

But what if you, and only you, know that the potatoes are rotten or have some deadly illness.

Can you walk away?
