Fran had a very rare, and therefore expensive, automobile that she wished to sell. Fran
worried that if the first attempt at selling the auto failed, the value of the auto might

resold, Fran created a sales contract that provided for an estimation of damages should
the contract later be breached by the potential buyer. A potential buyer was found, and
