Offer in United States
Offer Definition
The word offer is frequently used by courts and text writers as synonymous with “tender,” and it may properly be so used with reference to articles capable of manual delivery and actually produced. But with respect to heavy articles of merchandise, situated at a distance from the place to which they must be transported if restored to the vendor, the phrase “offer to return” is more commonly or aptly applied to express a willingness, or to make a proposal, to rescind the contract and return the goods. 156 111. App. 476.
