    The crux of the case was the defendant had previously accepted contracts via text message with responses like “ok”, “yup”, and “looks good”. All of those contracts were successfully completed.

    IMO he was looking to back out of the contract because he could get $41 / bushel instead of the $17 that was in the contract.

      “We’ve done business before without actual contracts, so we should always be able to.” Sounds like bad businessmen to me.
