Description
Blackstone's Guide to Consumer Sales and Associated Guarantees provides a practical guide to the important new Guarantees Directive and its implementation. The Directive affects (a) consumers' rights and remedies against the seller where they purchase defective goods, and (b) the enforcement of manufacturers' guarantees.
The book deals with the relationship and interaction of these new rights with the existing sale of goods law. Written by leading experts in the field, the Guide is both clear and comprehensive in its coverage. It also contains the full text of relevant legislation including the Sale of Goods Act as amended and the EC Directive on Sale of Consumer Goods and Associated Guarantees.

Reviews / Votes
Authors explore deficiencies and ambiguities in depth...This formulaic approach is useful in allowing the reader quickly to ascertain where to look for relevant material...Authors explore them [remedies available under the Regulations] in considerable detail, noting both theoretical and practical difficulties...It explores a wide range of academic issues in a detailed but readable style...The bullet-pointed structure and the reproduction of the relevant legislation allow the reader to quickly find the relevant material...The more serious students of sales law might well find this book a very useful addition to their main textbook.More details
