Canceling Contract Due To Over-Pricing
Is it permissible to cancel a contract if there is a substantial difference between the transaction price and market price?
If the difference between the market price and the transaction price is substantial enough at the time of payment, the transaction may be cancelled by the buyer. Though jurists do not seem to specify the degree of difference between the market and transaction prices constituting “substantial,” a percentage may be incorporated into the contract itself.
