Buyer liability for refusal to accept delivery triggers obligation to compensate seller for loss and care charges. When a seller is ready and willing to deliver goods and requests the buyer to take delivery, the buyer who does not within a reasonable time take delivery is liable to the seller for any loss occasioned by that neglect or refusal and for a reasonable charge for the care and custody of the goods; the seller's rights remain unaffected where such neglect or refusal amounts to a repudiation of the contract.
