Opinion by
This is a suit to recover commissions claimed to be due on a saleman’s contract for the sale of motor vehicles.
The written contract had but one object, and that was the sale of motor vehicles through the plaintiff. It had no relation to sales other than those made by him. The section above set forth upon which the defendants base their defense refers to deduction of prices, expenditures and concessions in such cases where the agent in making the sale offered inducements to the purchaser, and the evident purpose was that any departure from the price by the agent had to be borne by him. If the agent sought the bridge company and secured the customer, the defendants were required in good faith to sell to the purchaser on the same terms as the agent had been authorized to sell or if it changed these the agent was not affected by such act. It was said in Keys v. Johnson, 68 Pa. 42, “If vendors were permitted to employ brokers to look up purchasers, and call the attention of buyers to the property which they desired to sell, limiting them as to the terms of sale, and then while such purchasers were negotiating, take the matter into their own hands, avail themselves of the labor, services and expenses of the broker in bringing the property into market, and accom
We think tbe case was properly submitted and that tbe judgment should not be disturbed.
Judgment affirmed.
