§ 1302.09.
(A) Unless otherwise unambiguously indicated by the language or circumstances: (1) an offer to make a contract shall be construed as inviting acceptance in any manner
and by any medium reasonable in the circumstances; (2) an order or other offer to buy goods for prompt or current shipment shall be construed
as inviting acceptance either by a prompt promise to ship or by the prompt or current
shipment of conforming or non-conforming goods, but such a shipment of non-conforming
goods does not constitute an acceptance if the seller seasonably notifies the buyer
that the shipment is offered only as an accommodation to the buyer. (B) Where the beginning of a requested performance is a reasonable mode of acceptance
an offeror who is not notified of acceptance within a reasonable time may treat the
offer as having lapsed before acceptance.
