Frequently Asked Questions about the Supply of Goods

What does the supply of goods act cover?

The Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982 was replaced by the Consumer Rights Act 2015 on 1 October 2015. This requires that service providers carry out work with skill, care and in good time and at a reasonable price.

What is meant by supply of goods?

The supply of goods simply means the transfer of ownership of goods from one party to another, usually via a purchase.

How does the supply of goods act protect consumers?

The Consumer Rights Act 2015 provides protection by enabling the consumer claim for repeat performance of the product or service if it doesn’t meet the standards required, or to a price reduction.

Can you get a refund for faulty goods?

Yes, you have a legal right to a refund if the goods you were sold are faulty, damaged, broken or not of satisfactory quality, or not matching the sellers description.

What is the basic law of supply and demand?

As the price for a product or commodity rises, the supply also rises and the demand falls. As the price for a product or commodity falls, the supply reduces as demand grows.

How long should goods be fit for purpose?

Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 you have a 30-day right to reject if the goods are of unsatisfactory quality or unfit for purpose. If the product breaks after the 30 day period, you have 6 months to return the faulty item and the burden of proof is on the retailer to show that the product wasn’t faulty when it was sold.
