(1)  Due primarily to the conduct of the consumer, a
delivery prearranged between the dealer and the consumer was

delivery to the consumer;

(2)  The delay in delivery is caused by a work
stoppage or an act of God; or

(3)  The dealer's inability to deliver by the
estimated date is due to the manufacturer's or supplier's failure
to deliver to the dealer in a timely manner the household goods
as ordered, and where:

(i) Despite good faith efforts to cancel the
contract with the manufacturer, the dealer is liable to the
manufacturer or supplier to complete the purchase under

or supplier is not caused by the dealer's delay in canceling the
order when requested by the consumer.

1985. Although the Michie Company corrected the
punctuation in the 1985 Supplement to the Commercial
Law Article, the error must be corrected
legislatively.

The error in punctuation was noted by the Michie
Company.
