My first reaction would be to consider the doctrine of impossibility/frustration of performance/purpose == Leland's cannot now deliver the item as represented due to changed circumstances. I'd have to think about it more and research. There are classic cases called the coronation cases -- people rented hotel rooms on the assumption a coronation would be on a certain date, but then the date changed. Or some similar fact pattern. Vague memory from first year contracts. Can't remember which way they came out.
