- High Court
Section 20(1)(c) must be read purposively within the CGA's consumer-protection scheme such that only post-delivery damage exceeding minor fair wear and tear will divest the consumer's right to reject; minor damage consistent with ordinary wear and tear does not operate to defeat the right to reject and the District Court correctly applied that test and adopted the Tribunal's factual findings.
