§ 34.1-2-206 — Offer and acceptance in formation of contract

(a) Unless otherwise unambiguously indicated by the
language or circumstances:
(i) An offer to make a contract shall be construed as
inviting acceptance in any manner and by any medium reasonable
in the circumstances;
(ii) An order or other offer to buy goods for prompt
or current shipment shall be construed as inviting acceptance
either by a prompt promise to ship or by the prompt or current
shipment of conforming or nonconforming goods, but such a
shipment of nonconforming goods does not constitute an
acceptance if the seller seasonably notifies the buyer that the
shipment is offered only as an accommodation to the buyer.
(b) Where the beginning of a requested performance is a
reasonable mode of acceptance an offeror who is not notified of
acceptance within a reasonable time may treat the offer as
having lapsed before an acceptance.
