Section 2602 - Manner and effect of rightful rejection
§ 2602. Manner and effect of rightful rejection.
(a) Time and notice of rejection.--Rejection of goods must
be within a reasonable time after their delivery or tender. It
is ineffective unless the buyer seasonably notifies the seller.
(b) Duties of buyer after rightful rejection.--Subject to
the provisions of sections 2603 (relating to duties of merchant
buyer as to rightfully rejected goods) and 2604 (relating to
options of buyer as to salvage of rightfully rejected goods):
(1) after rejection any exercise of ownership by the
buyer with respect to any commercial unit is wrongful as
against the seller; and
(2) if the buyer has before rejection taken physical
possession of goods in which he does not have a security
interest under the provisions of this division (section
2711(c) (relating to security interest of buyer in rejected
goods)), he is under a duty after rejection to hold them with
reasonable care at the disposition of the seller for a time
sufficient to permit the seller to remove them; but
(3) the buyer has no further obligations with regard to
goods rightfully rejected.
(c) Rights of seller after wrongful rejection.--The rights
of the seller with respect to goods wrongfully rejected are
governed by the provisions of this division on remedies of
seller in general (section 2703).
