§12A-2-201.


§12A-2-201.
   
   (1) Except as otherwise provided in this section a contract for the
   sale of goods for the price of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) or more
   is not enforceable by way of action or defense unless there is some
   writing sufficient to indicate that a contract for sale has been made
   between the parties and signed by the party against whom enforcement
   is sought or by his authorized agent or broker. A writing is not
   insufficient because it omits or incorrectly states a term agreed upon
   but the contract is not enforceable under this paragraph beyond the
   quantity of goods shown in such writing.
   
   (2) Between merchants if within a reasonable time a writing in
   confirmation of the contract and sufficient against the sender is
   received and the party receiving it has reason to know its contents,
   it satisfies the requirements of subsection (1) against such party
   unless written notice of objection to its contents is given within ten
   (10) days after it is received.
   
   (3) A contract which does not satisfy the requirements of subsection
   (1) but which is valid in other respects is enforceable
   
   (a) if the goods are to be specially manufactured for the buyer and
   are not suitable for sale to others in the ordinary course of the
   seller's business and the seller, before notice of repudiation is
   received and under circumstances which reasonably indicate that the
   goods are for the buyer, has made either a substantial beginning of
   their manufacture or commitments for their procurement; or
   
   (b) if the party against whom enforcement is sought admits in his
   pleading, testimony or otherwise in court that a contract for sale was
   made, but the contract is not enforceable under this provision beyond
   the quantity of goods admitted; or
   
   (c) with respect to goods for which payment has been made and accepted
   or which have been received and accepted (Section 2-606).
