Silence
A seller does not have to make any representations with reference to his goods. Silence does not constitute misrepresentation unless the circumstances are exceptional. When a person makes an offer, he cannot state that silence will be taken as an acceptance. However, in contracts which are uberrimaie fidei there is a duty to make all relevant facts known.
