Offer and acceptance in formation of contract.

400.2-206. (1) Unless otherwise unambiguously indicated by the language

or circumstances



(a) an offer to make a contract shall be construed as inviting acceptance

in any manner and by any medium reasonable in the circumstances;



(b) an order or other offer to buy goods for prompt or current shipment

shall be construed as inviting acceptance either by a prompt promise to ship

or by the prompt or current shipment of conforming or nonconforming goods,

but such a shipment of nonconforming goods does not constitute an acceptance

if the seller seasonably notifies the buyer that the shipment is offered only

as an accommodation to the buyer.



(2) Where the beginning of a requested performance is a reasonable mode

of acceptance an offeror who is not notified of acceptance within a

reasonable time may treat the offer as having lapsed before acceptance.
