    Wow. Do they do truck-loads of rice as Cash on Delivery there? If he didn’t pre-pay, can he just refuse delivery and not pay? No idea what verbal contract laws are in place.

      These sorts of deals are usually based on trust. You might pay beforehand, on delivery, or later. But cancelling / not paying will tank your reputation.

    That was hilarious, thank you! I must admit I’m morbidly curious as to how one orders a truck of rice by mistake…

      I’m assuming it’s a single pallet and the shop owner told the warehouse to send the minimum order amount. BIL probably thought it was just a few bags.

    In what country does “truck” refer to an SUV? I’m in America and I assumed at least a pickup truck.

        A pickup has a bed and can carry much more rice than an SUV. I have no idea why anyone would assume they meant an SUV.

          Pickup trucks and SUVs are both classified as light trucks. Also most of them are built on the same frames
