Read a random definition: cum molendinis et multuris

A quick definition of implied warranty:

An implied warranty is a type of guarantee that is not written down or spoken out loud. It is automatically assumed when someone buys goods or property, and it prevents the buyer from taking on any risks. There are different types of implied warranties, such as the warranty of merchantability, which means that goods must be fit for their ordinary purpose, and the warranty of habitability, which means that landlords must maintain their properties in a safe and livable condition. Implied warranties can be disclaimed, or waived, by using certain language, but this must be done in writing and be very clear.

A more thorough explanation:

An implied warranty is a type of guarantee that is not explicitly stated or written down. It is automatically presumed in the sale of goods or real property, which prevents a risk from transferring to the buyer. This is different from an express warranty, which is a promise made by the seller through words or conduct.

There are different types of implied warranties, including:

An example of an implied warranty of merchantability is when someone buys goods from a merchant. The goods must be fit for their ordinary purpose and pass without objection in the trade under the description. The implied warranty can be disclaimed by using "as is" or similar language that makes it clear that there is no implied warranty. However, if the buyer fully examines the goods or refused to examine them prior to purchase, there is no implied warranty with respect to defects.

An example of an implied warranty of habitability is the landlord's obligation to maintain the property suitable for residential use. If the premises are not habitable, the tenant is entitled to options such as moving out and terminating the lease or reducing the rent until the court determines fair rental value.

An example of an implied warranty of marketability is the warranty of good title against infringement. If there is a title defect that impairs the title's marketability, the buyer can rescind the contract or sue the seller for breach of contract.

Overall, an implied warranty is a guarantee that is automatically presumed in the sale of goods or real property. It is different from an express warranty, which is a promise made by the seller through words or conduct.

@Law-Shark: they didn't say we had to go? and if they are willing to buy rooms for a bunch of people. they sent me a res because I was over 50 miles away but I didn't even ask for one
16:42
@Law-Shark: also kind of rude for you to be speaking to me like that, the event started at 9am and I had to wakeup at 4 to drive in. i was tired and couldn't even check in until 4pm if I wanted to so I just drove back. it's unprofessional to offer it the night before and not the day after. they also didn't feed us actual food and we were there until 2pm.

The fact you didn't think a reservation in your name is something you need to be responsible for and cancel if you weren't going to show up to by sending a simple email is absolutely iresponsible.
16:43
I didn't make a reservation tho?
16:44
Yeah, I would have definitely gone to the hotel if I knew they booked a room for me. At the very least, it would be proper to show up personally and explain your extraneous circumstances
Law-Shark
16:44
Nah but it's in your name. I went to an ASD. I asked the school for an extra night and they gave it to me. You just need to plan things better.

This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain.
16:45

Law-Shark
16:45
disconnect*
Law-Shark
16:45
You live and you learn
16:45
because i did let one of the staff know i'd be leaving early and thought that would be enough
16:46
but i was confused why i got an e-mail with a room cuz I didn't ask for it at all
Law-Shark
16:46
Well, you know now what to do.
16:47
well on their end they prob shouldn't just be buying hotel rooms for ppl who don't request it and then getting mad I didn't go
16:48
goof
16:48
Did you get any materials for admitted students day explaining that they would be booking hotel rooms?
16:49
there was an opt in on the form but I didn't select yes
16:49
Hmm, that's weird
16:50
i think it's unprofessional of them to call you like what if you had an emergency and had to leave? why is it their business why you didn't stay? not like they're lacking money and $100.00 hotel room is gona make them bankrupt
16:50
i figured it was an error and I was on the road so I didn't read into it. plus it would make more sense for it to be the night before cuz it started at 9am? so I was like uhhh and paid it no mind
16:51
@bigfatsloth: that's what i'm saying, they were gonna pay no matter what
16:54
"This is like peak disconenct between the male and female brain." like bffr
16:55
It was probably an administrative error then. I can't imagine why they would book hotel rooms for people that didn't select yes. I would maybe follow up with them and apologize for the misunderstanding to avoid any awkwardness
