A merchant is a dealer in goods or a person who by his occupation holds himself out as having knowledge or skill peculiar to the goods or who employs a broker or agent whom he holds out as having such knowledge or skill.Sections relating to merchants include provisions on good faith; confirmation of oral contracts; firm offers; "battle of the forms"; warranty of title; warranty of merchantability; sales on approval; retention of possession of goods by seller; entrusting of goods; risk of loss; and duties after rightful rejection.
