The rules presented in this volume of the 'Principles of European Law' deal with sales contracts. The sales contract has served as the paradigm for contracts in general. Moreover, it is also probably the most common contract, and certainly the most common consumer contract, that there is. In fact, sales come in all shapes and sizes: ranging from the purchase of the daily newspaper at the newsstand or the groceries in the supermarket, through to the purchase of a new car and to commodity sales on highly specialised markets. Furthermore, there are many mixed transactions that contain a certain element of sale, such as distribution contracts or all sorts of manufacturing contracts.
These Principles start from the idea of a uniform regime for all kind of sales transactions. Moreover, these Principles aim to meet the needs of international and national commerce alike and attempt to create a truly uniform sales law, bridging the differentiation into different settings, different parties to the contract, and different objects of sales. However, when
deemed necessary certain provisions are declared mandatory in consumer sales, in order to protect the weaker party in the transaction involved. To that end, a balance is struck between the two major international instruments in this area, the CISG and the Consumer Sales Directive. Moreover, during the drafting process, comparative material from over 20 different EU member states has been taken into account.
