70A-2-326.   Sale on approval and sale or return -- Rights of creditors.
     (1) Unless otherwise agreed, if delivered goods may be returned by the buyer even though they conform to the contract, the transaction is:
     (a) a "sale on approval" if the goods are delivered primarily for use; and
     (b) a "sale or return" if the goods are delivered primarily for resale.
     (2) Goods held on approval are not subject to the claims of the buyer's creditors until acceptance; goods held on sale or return are subject to such claims while in the buyer's possession.
     (3) Any "or return" term of a contract for sale is to be treated as a separate contract for sale within the statute of frauds section of this chapter (Section 70A-2-201) and as contradicting the sale aspect of the contract within the provisions of this chapter on parol or extrinsic evidence (Section 70A-2-202).
