"Dress Shop Problems." Susie, who has a ladies' dress shop, reached an oral agreement with Kim, a wholesaler, to purchase 100 dresses for $80 each, with the dresses to be delivered within 30 days. Kim later orally agreed to a modification whereby she would add ten belts to go along with certain dresses at no extra charge. Kim did so because she wanted to maintain Susie's good will. Susie sent Kim a memo confirming their oral agreement, including the modification, but heard nothing. When the dresses did not arrive within 30 days, Susie checked with Kim. Kim told her that their agreement was no good because Kim never signed anything and that the UCC does not apply in the retail arena.
-Which of the following is true regarding whether the agreement between Susie and Kim for the sale of dresses satisfied the writing requirement of the UCC?

If it is not objected to within 10 days of receipt, the oral agreement, memorialized by the memo, is binding.
B)   The agreement is likely binding because under the UCC, if two merchants have an oral agreement, there is no requirement of a writing so long as another witness is willing to confirm that within 10 days of the agreement, one of the parties memorialized the agreement by a memorandum to the file, even if it was not sent to the other party.
C)   The agreement is binding because the UCC has no requirement of a writing under any circumstances.
D)   The agreement is not binding because Kim never signed anything by which she agreed to the terms of the oral agreement.
