51. Book IV DCFR, which is concerned with individual types of contract, appears to try with some effort, to once again correct this neglect of Community law for a sales contract by basing it upon the Consumer Sales Directive; in doing so, however, a peculiar tension arises between the general provisions in Book III DCFR and the contract of sale in Book IV DCFR, especially with respect to remedies.
