business of goods to a consumer there is a term in the contract, expressed or
implied, to the effect that the goods are supplied by reference to a sample-

   (a)  there is an implied condition that the bulk will correspond with the
        sample in quality;

   (b)  there is an implied condition that the consumer will have a reasonable
        opportunity of comparing the bulk with the sample; and
