1. The problem asks us to determine which scenarios are analogous to the Alaska Packers case, where a contract was deemed not a bargain due to lack of mutual agreement or coercion.
2. Important rule: A contract requires offer, acceptance, and consideration without duress or unfair pressure.
3. Scenario A: Alfred offers $1000, Betty delays decision, then agrees to buy but Alfred demands $2500. Betty accepts. This is not analogous because Betty had no obligation and Alfred changed terms before acceptance.
4. Scenario B: Alfred invites Betty for a test drive, then traps her and demands $2500. Betty accepts under duress. This is analogous because acceptance was coerced, similar to Alaska Packers case.
5. Scenario C: Alfred offers $1000, Betty accepts but needs time to get money, Alfred agrees. When Betty arrives with $1000, Alfred demands $2500. Betty agrees due to necessity. This is analogous because Betty is forced to accept higher price due to reliance and lack of alternatives.
