A seller sued a buyer for the price of goods delivered under a contract, but the buyer defended by alleging that the goods were defective and unusable for the intended purpose, despite having accepted delivery without immediate reservation. The court held that while the buyer's acceptance generally waives minor defects, it does not preclude an action for latent defects that render the goods unfit for their intended use, provided the buyer could not have discovered such defects upon ordinary inspection at the time of delivery, thus affirming the lower court's decision allowing the buyer's claim based on latent defects.
