And those who do not fully understand contracts (which is probably more than half the buying public) you may be in for a big (expensive & unexpected) surprise. And that sets a little on the south side of fair to both sides of a contract.

I (like you) accepted the terms of TV's contract. But I (and You) did so understanding exactly who was doing what to whom. I suspect most do not have that perspective, and that is less than most consumers expect, and deserve.

Gotta go with the great one on this. The issue is that it is your 3rd party that is causing the problem, not TV's. The problem is between you and that party. Now if the 3rd party that failed to deliver was the builder or one of his suppliers or subs, the problem would be TV's and he would be at fault and in default. You would be entitled to the damages and expenses Fumar specified.
