Summarise Thompson (WL) Ltd v Robinson (Gunmakers) Ltd [1955]

The defendant bought a Vanguard car from the plaintiff, and later refused to accept and pay for it. The plaintiff’s profit would have been £61. It was held that where, as here, the supply of Vanguard cars exceeded the demand, had the plaintiff found another customer and sold to him as well as the defendant, then there would have been two sales and two profits. Therefore, the defendant was liable for £61.
