The judge preferred the defendant's account on credibility grounds, found the plaintiff failed to prove entitlement to the contract price, and dismissed the plaintiff's claim. The defendant's timely rejection was accepted and the defendant succeeded on the counterclaim for transportation costs (limited to the amount proved). Storage charges were not recoverable as a consequence of the plaintiff's breach in the absence of pleaded or proved agreement to pay storage.
