Are you saying they agreed to a deal without even knowing the price of a ‘unit’?? They truly are idiots then

  Others have pointed this out, but it's possible that the estimated volume was quoted in units while the price was quoted in bags. That seems unlikely, but it's possible. If that is what happened, then their IQ (idiocy quotient) is not quite so far off the scale as it would have been if they really had agreed to the deal without knowing the price at all. But it's still pretty damn high. And under no conceivable scenario are the justified in accusing the distributor of being a bad actor.

    But even then the price wouldn’t make sense right? I mean - regardless of unit confusion, didn’t they have to at some point calculate a price per unit themselves ? At that point the error would be pretty clear no? I can’t think of a combination of unit confusion that results in a normal price

      > But even then the price wouldn’t make sense right? Yes, it would, if the price was quoted per bag rather than per unit/case. That seems unlikely, but it's possible, and it would make the initial confusion slightly more understandable.
