(d) That the applicant or licensee, directly or indirectly, has purchased for the account of the applicant or licensee produce received by the applicant or licensee, upon consignment without prior authority from the consignor, together with price fixed by consignor, or without promptly notifying the consignor of such purchase; but this does not prevent any wholesale produce dealer, selling produce on commission, from taking to account of sales, in order to close the day s business, miscellaneous lots or parcels of produce remaining unsold, if such wholesale produce dealer forthwith enters such transaction on the account of sales of the wholesale produce dealer.

(e) That the applicant or licensee has made fictitious sales or has been guilty of collusion to defraud any grower of produce.

(g) That the licensee was intentionally guilty of fraud or deception in the procurement of the license.

(h) That the licensee or applicant has failed or refused to file with the department a schedule of charges for services in connection with produce handled on account of or as an agent of another.
