70. (1) Where there is a contract for the supply (otherwise than by way of
sale by auction or sale by competitive tender) by a corporation in the course
of a business of goods to a consumer by description, there is an implied
condition that the goods will correspond with the description, and, if the
supply is by reference to a sample as well as by description, it is not
sufficient that the bulk of the goods corresponds with the sample if the goods
do not also correspond with the description.

(2) A supply of goods is not prevented from being a supply by description for
the purposes of sub-section (1) by reason only that, being exposed for sale or
hire, they are selected by the consumer.
