Check a seller's email promises against the contract with Claude
Claude found that a written VAT guarantee was worth nothing when Sindre Rudshaug helped a friend buy an MG4 for NOK 199,900. The seller had promised by email to cover a VAT increase if the car was delayed, but clause 9 of the standard contract says the buyer pays price increases.

The seller had promised by email to cover a VAT increase if the car was delayed, but clause 9 of the standard contract says the buyer pays price increases. Another branch of the same dealer struck the clause. He does not show how he used Claude, so check the original.

Read the email thread with [dealer] and the contract for [car or item], and list everything the seller has promised on price, delivery, equipment and guarantees. Check each promise against the contract clauses and mark anything missing or contradicted. Show me the list with quotes and clause numbers before anything is sent to the seller. You are done when I know what I need written into the contract.
