''Byrne & Co v Leon Van Tien Hoven & Co'' () 5 CPD 344 is a leading English contract law case on the issue of revocation in relation to the postal rule. In it Lindley J of the High Court Common Pleas Division ruled that an offer is only revoked by direct communication with the offeree, and that the postal rule does not apply in revocation; while simply posting a letter counts as a valid acceptance, it does not count as valid revocation. ==Facts== Van Tienhoven & Co posted a letter from their office in Cardiff to Byrne & Co in New York, offering 1000 boxes of tinplates for sale on 1 October. Byrne and Co got the letter on 11 October. They telegraphed acceptance on the same day. But on 8 October Van Tienhoven had sent another letter withdrawing their offer, because tinplate prices had just risen 25%. They refused to go through with the sale.〔A Burrows, ''A Casebook on Contract'' (2nd edn Hart 2009) 49〕
