Section 391

Where a purchasing commission is awarded that is a commercial transaction for both parties, the provisions of sections 377 to 379 applicable to the buyer apply accordingly with regard to the principal's duty to inspect the goods and to notify the commission agent of any defects discovered, with regard to the duty of looking after the storage of the rejected goods, and with regard to the sale of the goods in case of their imminent deterioration. The claim of the principal to assignment of the rights to which the commission agent is entitled against the third party from whom the commission agent bought the goods for the account of the principal will not be affected by a late notice of defects.
